White Blood Cells

I got great news this morning that I wanted to share.

My wbc count has gone up! It's been lower than .3, they can't measure anything lower than that. As of this morning, it was 1.4. That's still a ways to go to reach the 7+ it was when I got here but it means:
I'VE GOT FUNCTIONAL BONE MARROW AGAIN!

Now it's time for breakfast.

Hiya Jer,

I wanted to be the first to say how thrilled and relieved I am. That is really great news and I was so happy to read it.

By the way, dad told me about your conversation last night, and just so you know, I do not read him word for word. I think I mentioned that in my last comment. Don't worry - I'm a good editor.

Well, you just keep getting better - Bryana's putting out the word to all "her" rabbis.

Much love,
Robin

Hi Jerry,

It was great news to read that your wbc was up and that you have functioning bone marrow. I am not educated on medical terms but the way you explained it made it sound so simple. I pray that you continue to improve.

We took Mike to lunch today. It was 19 of us there. And I gave him a hug from you.(smile)

Stay in good spirits and continue to do what the doctors say.

Take Care
(Kathy
