Bad News - Good News - Bad News



In the last blog I wrote that was struggling to fight off this cold or flu. Well, Tuesday the temp began to go up and about noon and one o'clock it hit the 100.5. So I called Isaac and I started packing. I am again a patient at MD Anderson. The lungs are clear. Tests have been taken. Blood samples drawn and the neutrophil count is extremely low, they are those first responders in there to defend when an infection sets in. There is not enough of 'em, just not enough. So here I am in the hospital, IV pole is crowded, and "Mash" is on TV.
I had so hoped for better. Maybe this will be the last time.
