Date: 2010-08-10
Getting ready for chemo today. Took a shower, ate a good breakfast, and I feel great!
We go in for bloodwork at 9:45, to see how high the WBC count is climbing.
I’ll post updates to FB & Twitter, and update this post when I get home.
Wish me luck!
AFTER CHEMO UPDATE
Third time WAS the charm! My Neutrophil (white blood cell) count was at 2600, WELL ABOVE the 1200 minimum. I got have chemo, and I ate 2 lunches during chemo yesterday, the complimentary hospital lunch and a Triple Lindy burrito from Moe’s that my parents brought. This afternoon (24 hrs later) we’re going back to the hospital to get a shot of Neulasta, which will stimulate my bone marrow to grow and produce lots more white blood cells. Life is good.
