Surgery

Erkki's breathing deteriorated through the night and the doctors needed to insert a "breathing tube". They want to do emergency surgery to deal with his infection. This is obviously very risky due to his very low platelet count. Tachy has signed the consent for this and we will let you know more later. Tom Barnett

I've been off-line and just checked in. Needless to say we are so sorry to hear the latest news. We will keep posted and check the site often. Sending you the best energy we can and hope to hear some good news soon. Of course, as always, if there is anything at all we can do please let us know.

LOL

This whole chemo treatment is not easy, first for itself and then for the infections. I hope that they will be able to tackle this one as his count was so good before.

All the best!!!!
