Excitement of the weather kind...

We had some pretty strong storms move through last night. The tornado sirens must have gone off 4 or 5 times overnight. We didn't see much damage after this round though, the ones that moved through last Thursday brought down a lot of big trees in the area.

Feeling a little better today, I finally dropped the 5 pounds I gained from the dex so hopefully my blood pressure will stabilize. Getting some more fluids in the clinic right now, but I felt less lightheaded this morning. I had a little nausea last night for the first time this round, I'm waiting for my APN to come by to see if she recommends I take something. The chemo fog seems to have cleared a bit so I'm feeling a little more with it, like I can finally start taking turns in my Words with Friends games and spelling something more profound than Dog. I did somehow manage to score my all time one word high score on the morning of the transplant...111 points!

Missing the munchkins today, seems like I've been here a long time already. I need fast forward button!

    Glad to hear the weather isn't any worse than what's been reported. More glad to hear your progress meter is heading into the green zone (+)! Speaking of doctors, the 3 of us attended a 2nd taping of The Doctors in L.A. yesterday. They do 2 shows at a time. Not sure when they air but it's entertaining and informative show.
    Hope they'll let you go home soon! The Dekes

    I don't know if I want to play you any more if you're breaking out 111 point words! Glad the fog is clearing, hope you're doing even better today!
