    Sorry Bob, I can't be of any

    Sorry Bob, I can't be of any help to you on this.  However, I do know when I was in treatment, there were people getting blood before their chemo.  I don't know if this helps or not.   My best to you and Lorraine.

    Hi Bob

    I too don't have any personal experience with this but I hope everything went well for Lorraine yesterday.  Sending lots of prayers and good wishes to you both.

    Warmly,

    Kelly
