For two yrs I have dealt with my cousin
who is 28 and has been fighting ovarian
cancer. They have recently told us that
her cancer is spreading all over and
unless she can get her body built back up
she can no longer have any type of chemo.
She hasn’t had any chemo in about 3
weeks now. Is that a bad thing? She is
in the hospital as we speak now.
Her white blood count is at 0 and her
platelets are also at 0. She has been put
in the hospital two times in the last
three weeks because of her platelets being
0. Can someone please tell me what that
means? Does this look good for my cousin?
Last yr they said she would be lucky
if she lived 4months then she started
doing great and now the dr says her body
will not respond to any type of chemo. I
am so scared of losing my cousin. Please
someone help me with some answers.
