Barring infections, I’ve probably seen the last of the transplant team and am turned over to the regular hematologist (who just happens to be big on the transplant team, but he also has a place in the regular clinic rotation) next week. Looking to be cleared for a lot more freedom.
Still need Zofran. Less, though.
Yesterday was the first real shower, today I used the one in the master bath with 100% soft water. Yes, it makes quite a lovely difference though I can’t say I feel it in my hair.
Got the Caldwell up on the chassis stand today so I can begin doing a little prep work for Labor Day. It’s amazing how exhausting just the least bit of exertion can be; no doubt as I grow more erythrocytes that will improve.
I just added “Moneyball” to our Netflix list. According to this blog I watched it a few weeks ago and I’m told I cried profusely over one scene. I can’t remember one bit of the movie.
Nancy’s doing much better, too, and sends her thanks for all the good wishes.
Tim,
Kimberley, Annika and I are a bit late to the party on reading up on your status, but please know that you’ve been in our thoughts all the while. Glad to hear you’ve started paying a bit of attention to the Caldwell – now it will earn it’s keep as a therapy tool rather than just a toy.
Dad’s started working on me to climb into one of the EFFs at some point – can’t say the idea doesn’t have some appeal, but that means you’ll have to get back to your fighting weight before long, as I wouldn’t want to be on-track without you.
Keep up the positive attitude and great progress.
Love,
Mike
I’m actually right in the center of my ideal weight now, though the distribution does reflect years of steroid use. I’m just trying to add a few pounds of reserve..
There’s no racing in Phoenix during the summer months, so my target date for the next Caldwell run is Labor Day. That should be easy to make. I tend to monitor eBay for cheap Nomex but have no idea what size I should be watching for you.
