An Update on Barbara:
Perhaps the excitement of Kangaroo-ing on Saturday took its toll on Barbara, as Sunday's blood tests did not show the improvemnet we all hoped for. Barbara underwent a blood transfusion during the evening in hopes that this will accelerate her platelet count back to near normal numbers. Tests on Monday will then help decide when we can plan on Barbara's homecoming. Despite this small set bcak, she remains in a positive spirit and the focussed individual we all know and love - you'll be home soon, honey, I know it!
