Quick trip to emergency

Last night Sat. Dad took a quick trip to emergency. He has been having some neck pain that turned into a headache. They ended up calling the doctor and he wanted another CT scan of his head to make sure his brain bleed wasn't getting worst. In the ER they did the CT scan and it came back great. It has gotten smaller since last time. They did find his platelets were lower then what they should be. He had platelets on Fri. and then they gave him more last night. When he went in today for his drive by shot (for his white blood cells) he had to stay a little longer to get platelets again. He was told that his hematocrit was still dropping, on Tues. he'll need another whole blood transfusion unless needed sooner.
