Gotta Laugh...

The last couple of weeks here at work have been interesting to say the least.  Now I realize that once a person is actually diagnosed with something, people are going to talk…rumors are going to fly. 
I’m just here to say “The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated.” 
The doctor said nothing about me only having 6 months left.  I do NOT have leukemia.  I am OK!!! 
I don’t feel any different now than I did 4 months ago when all the tests started.  I do however have days that I am very, very tired.  I still can’t figure out if that’s from my sleeping habits or from this blood disorder, either way, tired is tired.

I know I look pale. I have to see me in the mirror every day!  If they are auditioning for a mime anytime soon, I’m your man!


Chrissy and I are heading back to Florida to visit her daughter on July 4th.  Trust me, I am going to work on this paleness wholeheartedly!!
And…..if there is any medicinal value in a margarita I’m sure to find out exactly what that is. 

My next doctor appointment has been moved up with the nudging from my daughter and brother. It was on July 19th and now it will be on July 1st.  Hopefully Dr. Gershner will be able to shed some light on all the questions we have for him.  If not, well…there’s always good ol’ Barnes in St. Louis. 

I do so appreciate all of your concern and kind words. 
(placing my fingertips over my pulse on my wrist)  Yep, still alive.  J
