Sheeeeeeeeeeiiiiiittttt !

It was bound to happen eventually. I had my first chemo disappointment today. Went to my appointment and ended up disappointed. A bunch of those quick draw chemical cowboys have been shooting and pac manning a little too much on my poor white blood cells. They have destroyed a few too many so the doc decided it was not a good idea to feed me any chemo today. So like the wind I came and went from the doctors office. I am officially neutropenic and am suffering from neutropenia. Now I know it sounds like some kind of nuclear sexual disease but it just means I cannot fight bacterial infection too well at the moment. I have to have a shot of neupogen every day for the next four days which should chemically blackmail my bone marrow to make white cells at an accelerated pace. Isn't it strange that I am upset cuz I can't have chemo. The worst part is that our plan was to head for the hills on Saturday and now we cannot. If any of you think you see me in public the next week or so, I will be the one wearing the mask. Here are a list of my can'ts: No public appearances in crowds, no raw fruit or vegetables, stay away from young children, stay away from plants and flowers, no playing in the dirt and wash my hands regularly. What a frigging drag. Sorry for the poor attitude but I get one every once in a while.
