My Knight

"Just the Facts"-- Dragging, levels must be getting low.  Sleeping sounds so good.

To look at him, you'd never know he was ill!  That is what we have heard repeatedly from several doctors.  But to see his sleep pattern or watch him walk up the stairs tells a different story.  But he was still able to take care of my flat tire yesterday.  Yea!  I'm going to miss that for a while.

Last test completed today and ended with another blood test. Ugh! Then went to "the specialist" and they took 13 vials....hey, we need another transfusion, fast!  Wait, didn't we just get one?  Yes, that is how this adventure has been going.  This transplant couldn't be coming any too soon.  So as of today we are in the 2 week countdown.  Lots to do (and not to do) during this time.  B has to stay well and avoid anything with a virus.  I need to clean, clean, clean.  B won't be able to be around people or crowds, or much of anything but home once he has the transplant, so do we go out and have a blast?  I don't think so.  Seems much of that was already taken care of by being sick for the last 2 months.  We all had to get flu shots, even my brother-in-law did and this was his first.  There is only one that still needs it (and you know who you are, sorry babe). 

I heard a story the other day about a guy that for some time now has faithfully been providing platlettes for those in need. Then I recently found out that a co-worker of mine was actually a bone marrow donor 10 years ago. What are the odds?  I also know a few others that have faithfully and without prodding given blood regularly over the years.  I would just like to say that these people are heros.  They save lives every day and don't even know it, get recognized or thanked.  Well, I would like to thank each of you for your donation of life.  I am reminded of your gift every day while looking at my husband!  What great hearts you all have.
Until next time,
