Star student

My blood work revealed "rock solid" counts today, according to my oncologist. I'm still not into analyzing all the figures, maybe that will come, but I'll take "rock solid" as a good sign. I do know my cell counts are within the acceptable ranges. A nurse referred to me as "our star student" because I've so far escaped the nausea usually associated with chemotherapy. Medical folk give credit to the anti-nausea medicine and me being "a very strong man." You know, if I didn't have this cancer I think I'd be just fine. ...
I start chemo again Feb. 1. Three more days of five-hour treatments. ...
Once again, I'm tired at the end of the day. I was told early on that if eight hours of sleep wasn't enough, get 10. I think I'll try that tonight.
My daughter visited today. It was one of the best visits we've had in a long time. E-mails, cards and comments on this blog are always appreciated. And please keep those prayers coming, I'm sure they work just as well, or better, than the meds.
