    My leukemia's back.

    This is Rae. June of 2014 I think. Just after initial diagnosis and the start of chemotherapy. She didn't want her hair falling out slowly, so she took the clippers to it!

    My leukemia's back.

    Hi every buddy! This is sugar monkey, typing in for my mom. She asked me to come and give you all an update. She is back home on Hospice; now we're just waiting for her to go see Jesus. She's not having much pain, so that's a good thing, but she has no vision and that's very frustrating. "I...

    A rooster? And this is NOT a buff Orpington!

    Both blue birds look to be cockerels. The white bird is a Delaware Pullet.

    My leukemia's back.

    Hey all. Had a bit of a rough time. Of all things, it started with a spot of athletes foot at my little toe. Well, when you have zero immune system, that bit of nothing turns your foot to a purple throbbing thing that is so exquisitely tender no one can touch it. IV Vancomycin is brought in...

    My leukemia's back.

    I got to bask in some of that beautiful sunshine while getting platelets yesterday....and yep, grey and gloomy this morning. Maybe it will burn off, who knows?

    My leukemia's back.

    Hey all. Kind of feeling the chemo catching up I guess. Just weaker and tired today. Honey's headed home for the weekend, I think my Mom is coming over tomorrow. Sold a few birds yesterday and have a lady wanting some today. Ill feel better when they're gone and the boys don't have to take...

    Guesses on This Hen?

    She looks to be a classic Barnyard Mix. Likely a mix of mixes, with the wavy comb, mixed coloring and dark legs. Looks like she's a good Momma? That would make her a keeper in my book!

    My leukemia's back.

    Hi all. Last day of chemo! Now it will be the waiting game of my counts tanking and waiting for recovery, hopefully without too many complications. They are now talking about transfusion me with lymphocytes from my original donor and see how that does. Not as brutal as a full on transplant...

    What's inbreeding?

    Do a search on this forum. There are several threads about inbreeding and line breeding. Basically, if your parent stock are healthy, your offspring are going to be healthy. With hatchery birds I've bred about 4 generations and had no issues.

    My leukemia's back.

    Doing okay. Waiting for my platelets, it takes a while because they have to be matched. Feeling kind of tired but doing okay. It was so good to have honey here last night.
