I am still in the hospital today, Friday and am set for another fabulous weekend at the Hotel SGH. However, my doc says that he will have me out of here by wednesday (so of course my goal is monday or tuesday!) My WBC’s are coming up, my neutrophils are coming up, and for the first time I feel like my body and I are on the same team. I can feel that those blood cells are fighting my mouth sores like crazy!
So the pain is better which will hopefully lead to the sores getting better and therefore the eating will be better. I am continuiing to fight the good fight and will be SO thankful when this month is over.
sorry for the short post…i am on this morphine machine where I push a button and give myself a dose every 20 min. works great for the pain…not so much for the typing. Can’t really focus on he screen that easily…like doing this drunk!
love, peace, and light

Thanks for your support -
hang in there and enjoy the good drugs. LOL
hugs and kisses Kara
You are one impressive woman! Thanks for the updates even though you are feeling so crummy. I think of you often while I am at work and I know you are in the hospital. I wish I could carry your load for awhile so you could enjoy a great meal with your friends! Hang in there, a lot of people you hardly know care about you and want happiness for you!
Stay drunk as long as you feel like it….the typing will come later. Keep up your good spirits….hoping the mouth is better and the dreams of some good food will get you thru.

Hi there. See? – I actually accessed your blog rather than call your cell phone! Also, this is the first time ever I’ve done a “blog” – whatever that word means. So, you’re stretching your technology-challenged father. Wonderful to see you last week, and any external “observer” could really see you improving each day – and the numbers confirmed it. Your physician is just great – I can see why you’re so bonded there. So were the nurses – the ones I met anyway. The hospital food is TERRIBLE. Small consolation, but you’re not missing much by not being able to eat it.
Keep the number going in the right direction. And keep fighting the Al Qaeda in your blood stream – unlike our President, you’re clearly winning the war on “terrrrr”.
Kisses and hugs,
DADdude. I am resurfacing after 10 days of work craziness… too many hours at the office, not enough hours in my bed. I know by the time I finish with all by ridiculousness (by the end of this week)(and question: how many times can you get threatened with malpractice before you have a nervous breakdown – isn’t there some kind of advice column for lawyers I can consult), your mouth sores will be healed, and you will be back at your casa.. I am visualizing you laid out on the couch with loved ones all around, feeding you popsicles.
Hi Josi,
You don’t know me but I’m Michelle and Chris’ new addition to their family. I’m warm, fuzzy and shy. I moved from SD to LV this week. How would ever move to this crazy desert? This is just a short introduction and pictures are on the way. Hang in there! Lots of sloppy puppy kisses and warm wishes.
