Hey there everyone,

I just had to pass on that my appointment went really well today.  My numbers are higher than they’ve ever been before!!  My white count is 3.41…..3.41!!!!…neutrophils 2.3, hemoglobin 10.9, hematocrit 29.6 and platelets 159,000!!! Can you believe it?  Just to give you an idea of how good those are, last week my white count was 1.89, neutrophils .9, hemoglobin 9.4, hematocrit 28 and platelets 70,000.  Big difference, huh?  I’m very proud of this “report card”.  :)  It was also really good to see everyone at the office too.  I was happy they recognized me, because I was worried about my big cheeks, and I was wearing a hat, but they did!

We got some pizza for dinner…haven’t had that for a while, and it was yummy!!  Then, Rachel and I did a little unpacking of boxes…well, I did the paperwork and Rachel unpacked.  Actually because of my ridiculous chemo-brain, Rachel helped me with the paperwork.  It feels good to get a little bit done…little by little.  Thank you, Rachel!

Anyway, nothing else going on.  I’m getting irritated with Facebook…it just doesn’t seem like it’s organized to be easily navigable.  Give me my blog anyday!!!!  Oh well…a friend sent me a tutorial, so I’ll have to check that out.  After I get everything else organized, right?!!  I’m still feeling overwhelmed, but thanks to my family, friends, and especially Jameson and Guinness (they follow me everywhere), I’ll work through it.

OK, I hope you’re all doing well!!

Love,

Julie
