hi everyone, fri was a long day for me...it started with getting platelets at 8:30 which took about 2 hrs,and then a lumbar puncture at 1:00, and then at 2:40 i was seeing the doc again. the first lumbar puncture showed no leukemia in my spinal fluid,but they are shooting my up with chemo in my spine just as a preventitive measure..when i had my appt on fri they of course took blood to see if i needed a transfusion. i did, and so sat i was back in the hospital in the infusion room getting 2 units of blood.this took about 5 hrs but well worth it because i needed it. sat night mark and sue came and brought over some pizza...we had a good visit. it is now sunday morning and i am getting ready to take a shower...be back when i don't stink no more ha ha :) all clean!
today is a day off for me from the pokes and prods...darn i guess i'll have to watch a football game:) i wanted to get the word out about giving blood, because it is saving my life and if you donate you could save a life too. thanks to brians cabinets and the center where my wife works...cants say thank you enough for your love and support. mindy has been 10 feet tall during all of this,i sure love that woman. she will be going back to work on monday and my daughter cass will be moving in to help take care of me. i am in good hands. i feel good except for fighting exhaustion. thanks again for all the love and support.......steve

Steve, do you suppose the little wheels on the IV stand will hold up at moped speeds? We should have that tested.
ReplyDeleteIt sure is good to see and hear you writing on here yourself. You sound good considering all you are going through.
Thank God for your wife. Keep fighting this thing and we will keep praying for you.

Steve,
ReplyDeleteCan't say enough about how happy I am to see your doing great, must be that great attitude of yours and your wonderful wife and family. You keep fighting and we'll keep praying for you. Looking forward to seeing you here when you're ready, we'll find something for you to bid.

Steve,
ReplyDeleteI spoke with Sue about making some good ready-made food for you and your family. It sounds like you are well covered in that area, but if there's a day my wife and I can do this for you, we'd be more than happy to do so. Please do not hesitate to let us know. 390-5451 or email at dennis@omadhaun.com.
Take care and keep at it.
