It's About Sixes

I finished my sixth round of chemo this week. I go in for tests on the Dec 31st and another board meeting on Jan 5th. No idea if it's really working yet. Hopefully the board will decide to grant me a surgery then I'm going to sell the tumor on E-bay to the highest bidding Macrophage. Sorry, just a little cancer humor.

Some lady in my parents ward came over and told me I should drink a cup of Green tea every hour. She said her husband did that for two years and it reversed his cancer. I told her I had a magic feather that I kept in my back pocket.

I got a blood test last week. A normal person's white blood cell count should be around 4 to 9 thousand. Mine was at 60 thousand. When my cousin was diagnosed, his was at 32 thousand and they put him on treatment for Leukemia immediately. My nurse said she's never even heard of a number that high in all her career. Luckily a couple days later I was back down to normal.

This week I got an early Christmas present...eye brows. Thanks Santa! Merry Christmas!
