Terry continues to improve. His platelet count is back to normal, but he has experienced constant, nagging pain in his arm. He consulted his dr and she discovered blood clots in his arm. He had an ultrasound to determine whether they are superficial or deep vein. If they are deep vein clots, he will need to consult a hematologist to de-clot his blood but not mess up his platelet count. Or something like that. We're praying it's just superficial and heating pads will suffice.
Sadly, the caterpillars disappeared today. We were down to 11 this morning, 4 by the afternoon. I covered the 4 that were left with a mesh laundry basket. Somehow the laundry basket flew off and the caterpillars are nowhere in sight. We hope to see some swallowtails soon and know that they were "ours" for a day. Perhaps the wasps can't find them either.
