I realize that it had been over 6 months since my last post. Luckily, my blood situation is not something that affects my daily life anymore, so I've let this blog fall by the wayside. I'm happy to report that as of January 9th, I'm no longer on any medication and my blood levels are all either normal or normal enough not to worry about. I'm still seeing Dr. Tzachanis monthly, but if all continues to go well, we can hopefully space out to every few months. It's hard to believe that 18 months ago, I was spending 20+ hours a week on Beth Israel's 7th floor. It has been about 15 months since I've needed a transfusion, and hopefully, I never will again!
Life is otherwise fantastic and 2011 was a really wonderful year. I'm not sure I'm interesting enough to have a blog without a debilitating blood disorder, so unless my hematological situation changes, this will probably be it for "Meaghan's Bad Blood." The last year and a half has been quite a journey and while I hope to be able to leave aplastic anemia in my past, I will always be moved by and grateful for the love and support I received from all of my friends and family.
Thanks for reading! Go Patriots!
