Update on Cierra.....

Cierra had a blood test on Tuesday and the results were great. She had a platelet count of 210k (normal is between 150k -400k). In the past 2 months, the numbers were better than before (over 100k but under 150k). But, this is the first test since she was diagnosed with ITP that all the numbers were normal.

For those that weren't aware, Cierra was diagnosed with ITP around Easter. It's a fairly common blood disorder that occurs when healthy platelets are destroyed for no apparent reason. Mostly in children, this will go away on its own in a few months.

She's been fine throughout...you wouldn't even know anything was wrong. The Doctor's told us the first day that it would be tougher on the parents.......and they were right. Hopefully, we're on our way to putting this in the rear view mirror.
