Hi Gang,

   My platelets dropped but remain 13 points above the cutoff point so I am writing to you from the chemo chair. I have about 40 more minutes to go. My chemo pal was here today and we got to sit together despite a very full chemo unit. They also have t-shirts for the relay for life that say Survivor on them...I picked up a few! YAY!

Hemoglobin is up (I've been pusing protein)
White cell count is up (fighting something I hope)
Blood sugars through the roof thanks to the steroids so I've had some insulin

Other than that, I'm just sitting here listening to the delivery machine ticking away.

Tired. Very tire. Doc says that will get worse.

We have plans to go for Thai food but rignt now, I'd settle for a long nap so we shall see.

:) Love to all,

Michelle
