  Hi there,
  Where are you seeing the 54 number? You currently have 3 comments in the Spam folder: https://hospiceconversation.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit-comments.php?comment_status=spam

  If I click on Akismet stats from my dashboard, it now says 61 total ham.

  Hello,
  Thanks for the info. That is just a metric on spam that has been caught and removed from your site. Not all spam comments will be added to your site, if Akismet knows for sure that it is spam.
