Harpooning season open one more week

The patient is fairing well. No problems over the weekend. Counts are still depressed which makes the swine flu that much scarier (Luke did suggest this evening our going to the army surplus store tomorrow and picking up a Haz-Mat suit).

Blood stats are white cells .5, hemoglobin 7.9, platelets 22 and ANC .32. Luke received a unit of platelets today but they passed on giving red blood. Will see what Wednesday labs look like.

As Luke says, the nurses "harpooned" him again today. Same routine as before; one, two, three stab. Three harpoonings down and three to go. So far not allergic reaction to the ELA. The only after effect of the harpooning was Friday when the thighs here described as the first day of swim practice followed by a few hundred squats.

That's it for the medical report. Model building continues. New project is building a pedal for his guitar. Have 6 potential concert attendees, still plenty of room.

  1. Hey, babe, sorry about all the harpooning you are enduring. Hopefully, this part will be over soon for you. Am very much looking forward to seeing you in a few weeks and cannot wait for the concert! When you see Loggie, tell her you don't like her newest piercing (I haven't seen it yet, not even in pictures).

    P.S. Think I'm going to get to see EB tomorrow and I was hoping that Kate was coming with us, too, but not certain.

    Love you mucho,

  2. Hey Luke,

    The double stick thing sucks, if could take a round for you I would. Keep fighting the ASSHAT. EB gets here today so I am sure we will get daily updates through out her stay. A care package is on it's way.

    Take care buddy.

    Love all you guys.
