Blood test results
(written by Becky)
Short update – lots to do tonight! Mom’s blood tests looked good today. Her white blood cell count is higher, now in the normal range. However, her red blood cells are a bit lower. Not dangerously low, but lower than last week. However, we have lots of wheatgrass growing now and she’ll be drinking more fresh juice which should help. She’s also getting other iron-heavy foods and drinks, including spinach smoothies. Yum! 
Next Monday is a big day – a CAT scan to check the tumor and determine next treatment steps. So, we’re all anxiously awaiting that with lots of hope and faith. Also, Mom’s energy continues to rise and she says she’s feeling much better!
Normal families offer coffee to visitors. We offer spinach smoothies.
Our wheatgrass garden growing in different stages so there’s always fresh grass to harvest for juicing. We’re also experimenting with broccoli sprouts for salads. We’ve learned that so many things are good for fighting and preventing cancer, but the short list of superfoods are: wheatgrass, broccoli, carrots, raspberries, garlic and beets.
