The Finish Line
We did it!
4 months and 6 chemo treatments! All gone, all done!
We finished the bottle of chemo at 10pm last night and the last bag of saline 12 hours later.
They had to give me a shot to boost my white blood cell count.
It was 2,300 before they gave me the injection.
That night in my dream, I dreamt that I was playing the Nintendo game,Pikmin,
only this time, I was extracting white blood cells.
7 hours later, my white blood cell count was over 10,000!!! 4,000 more than a healthy person.
That's a huge defense army if you ask me.
The side effects started while chemo was going in this time.
I wasn't too worried 'cause.... (chuckle) I had extra blood cells to spare.
As I continue writing here, I can feel my brain starts to get fuzzy.
So glad I'm home.
I'm gonna go sleep it off now.
See you in..... oh..... 4 days?!
Meanwhile, enjoy Nuage's comment on his shower.
恭喜恭喜! Hurry home! A hospital is no place to be sick. Or well, for that matter.
ReplyDeleteI really liked the video game dream.
Dream on, and put the Mario Bros. to work for YOU!
