Apparently, there is a secret way to find out how I am doing and many people are using it. They ask the research manager. Since I look well and feel well, she has decided to tell them that I am doing well, which I am.
The blood tests went well yesterday. Most numbers were decent. My platelet count went down slightly, but only slightly. We will continue to work on that.
As I left to go out for tennis yesterday, the research manager noted that my billirubins were high. Apparently, they are reflective of something about the liver. But she noted that the other liver measures were all good, I thought about it while playing tennis, until it rained and then I thought about it while making and eating breakfast and then I went to the cancer center and asked the nurse practitioner about it. She said that they were high, but that they kept an eye on it and that my other liver numbers were good. Conclusion: trust the research manager.
Talking about the research manager, I have noticed that she often focuses her eyes on what I am doing and eating. I think she inherited her eyes from an eagle. I just have to laugh.
Our mutual printer is on my desk. The other day, a recipe got printed out for Brazilian chicken. I have spent hours looking for a Brazilian chicken to no avail. Things got worse though. The next thing I saw was a recipe for stolen chicken. If anyone wants to risk it, could you steal one for the research manager?
While I was at the cancer center, I mentioned that in addition to my hands and feet being affected, I thought my knees were losing hair. The nurse practitioner said that she had never heard that before, but she checked it out and said there was still plenty of hair there. I am sure that will be a story that will entertain someone at the cancer center.
So, all in all, things are good. I feel good. And I thank all you good people for your interest.
Future events.
Tooth extraction on April 23
