"all the news that fits"....

WANTED WHITE BLOOD CELLS..DEAD OR ALIVE
Counts were to low so they called off Friday’s treatment…moving it to Tuesday…..it is kinda like being rained out in softball…you get to the field and it’s to muddy to play but you all pumped to do so….wanted to get to the half way point so badly…but have have the new years weekend chemo free….on the up side had to get a shot of neupergin to raise whites counts to acceptable levels one today one tomorrow…and I get to give myself one on Saturday ( anybody out there want to stitch me) this family is so used to needles I am sure I will find a volunteer to jab me……….had the Commack nurses cracking up today…turns out two of my neighbors kids worked there ( one just left ) and I was given the red carpet treatment…even invited me behind the station for bagels….the shot gets into the bone marrow and is kinds making my bones achey… and had to skip work…….just another hurdle to leap…..sure glad I had my wheaties ( has anyone really ever had wheaties I mean they taste like cardboard) hope you get this blg having trouble logging on

Tom,
So sorry that today did not work out as planned, but hey even a kick in the pants is forward motion, huh?

Keep the positive vibes going, enjoy the New Year (think Dick Clark will make it out?) and add something to those Wheaties - will ya! Maybe raisons, bananas or at very least some sugar.

hang in there, bro! there is a reason for the freezin'. play some music today; write a story about a most-memorable show you've seen to us- that is sure to get som eendorphins going and those White Cells on the rise!

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

Love ya, Dreamer!
