Day +21

Three weeks today since they reinstalled my batch of stem cells back into my blood stream. It has gone fast, and it has gone well. Very grateful to have avoided almost all of the nasty stuff which often results from the chemo and various drugs which have to be used. I missed out on the awful mouth ulcers completely. PTL. I really only had a couple of days where I felt pretty wasted. The rest of the time has been very good.

The old bod seems to be gaining ground each day. I worked all day yesterday and we had a few folks around last night. All OK. I have another check up tomorrow to check that blood counts are still rising and everything else is on track. Still finding it a bit hard to drink loads of fluids but are trying to work on it.

Thanks again for the widespread support, prayers, encouragement and barracking from the sideline. All very much appreciated.

Cheers
Bruce
