Quick update!



Hannah's platelets are at 30,000 today, a drop but still holding in the same range for almost 3 weeks now!  The next 2 weeks will be crucial as the effects of her last IVIG infusion will be completely gone and her platelets will no longer have any protection against the antibodies her body is producing (Studies have shown the effects or the protection IVIG provides lasts anywhere from 4-6 weeks).  Hannah's bone marrow, biopsy, and all genetic testing came back negative!!!! While this still doesn't provide any answers I am continually thankful that we don't have any other "Giants" to battle.  ITP and Evans is beyond enough for me!  If Hannah's platelets continue to hold and there are no new signs of bruising/petechiae, she doesn't have to have a draw for another 2 weeks!  We'll take it!
