The first store didn’t have it (third time we’ve checked) but said another store did. That store was also sold out. Three hours in, we ended up at a third store where, blessedly, they had one.

Today there were two other gentleman having phlebotomies, as well, both of them veterans of the process. Dad chatted happily with them both the whole time. One of them, looked to be in his 70s, had been having phlebotomies for about 2 years now. When he heard Dad was only a month into this he reassured Dad that the frequency of blood draws will reduce. He currently comes in once a month for his. He also told Dad that he tried stopping the phlebotomies for about 4 months at one point and restarted because he felt VERY poorly -- this improved when he restarted his regular phlebotomies. (Yay! That was so helpful for Dad to hear!) The other gentleman had a boyish face, so it was harder to judge his age. Since he is still working (running his own business) I estimate he is likely in his 60s, and he has been doing this for 18 years! He contracted PV at an unusually young age. His frequency of phlebotomies has reduced to about every other month. Dad happily visited with both men about how the need for the blood draws does taper off over time, which seemed to cheer and reassure him to no end. Dad's blood flowed more quickly today, too, which is a promising sign. With luck after Monday's appointment we can drop Dad's phlebotomies to once a month for a while. Next time Dad wants to take a marker and have the phlebotomist sign his bandage afterwards, like signing a cast. He was joking around a lot today, too, which I haven't seen him do in several weeks. I am so relieved! I also asked Dad to ask his breakfast friends for dentist recommendations. Dad needs a check-up soon, and my dentist is a ways away from where Dad lives. I'd like him to be seen by someone more local. *partypartyparty emoji* It's so hard for guys to find friends to talk to! I'm really happy for your dad. One heart was not enough. ❤️❤️❤️ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrissiK Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 I am so upset. (Well, not really, more like disappointed.....) I bought two cute little tops at The Afsa last night, just to wear around, you know, nothing big, but I loved the colors (one a smoky charcoal and the other a really pretty pinkish salmon type color) and they were cheap. I tried them on and they just made me look fat and dumpy. I couldn’t believe it. Must have been the cut or something.?
