Thurs. Jan 3.

Mike and I were down to Princess Maragart Hopsital yesterday for blood work and chemo treatment (for me - although I think others should take turn!!!). There must have been a backlog of people due to the holidays as we had to wait 4 hours between blood work and the chemo - which is just a weekly injection this week. At least it gives us a chance to catch up on our reading.
There also appears to be a shortage of blood so if any of you notice blood doner clinic signs, please consider giving.
I'm feeling well - white blood cell count is down to 0.1 so I have no immunity right now, so am being cautious about where I go.
