Jessie ended up staying home for an extended weekend (from after the transfusions on Thursday night through Sunday night). She got in her car to leave and couldn't get it started!
After 20 mins of trying, we finally got it started, but I couldn't send her in a car that I wasn't sure would start when she needed it. So I gave her my car to drive back to school and I kept her car (I think she got the better deal!)
We dropped her car off to be checked out on Monday night. Still waiting to hear what they think is wrong.
Meanwhile, Jessie got her blood drawn today. We should get the results back tomorrow to see how her platelets are doing.
She was having some petechiae bruising (develops when the lining of small blood vessels is damaged, allowing blood cells to escape into the skin and tissue. It usually looks like freckles or tiny red dots) on her neck, ears and under her eyes.
