Dad occasionally sends out an email to the family telling us what's going on...this one was sent on Sept 13:
All good plans do not always work. Mom was going to Lake Tahoe for her yearly week long quilting retreat, and I and the Mealeys were heading for Morgan Hills to attend church and Garrett's ordination.
Well mom's nose has been bleeding, off and on for a week, and because of not getting any sleep and holding tissues in her nose she was pretty well tuckered out. A visit to Kaiser showed her platelets were way down but not yet at the critical stage. Then a second visit on Saturday (the emergency room was the only place that could deal with that ( what ? ) problem. So we spend 4 hours there going from room to room with the final news that we had to come back Monday to cat-arise ( could not find correct spelling ) the leak in her nose. The gave her something temporary to stop the bleeding which has worked so far. So back we go tomorrow.
