My leukemia's back.

Outpost, maybe when you get the doors fixed, you can replace them with french doors. I have always had a strained relationship with sliding doors. if anything settles a tiny bit, they lock up. At least with two doors, there is a chance one will open, or you can remove the hinge bolt and still have an opening.

It has been so rainy here. wet wet wet.

I know! Ugh, it feels like a wet blanket dropping over you when you go outside. Ugh!

This is what I hate about being in remission. I'm going along recovering, happy enough, not at all thinking "oh gee, that leukemia might come back"....and then something makes me think it might.

When I got my labs done last Friday, I didn't actually see the results, the doc just told me they were all stable. I had an appointment with my primary today (who I haven't seen in like a year), so I wanted to have copies of my recent lab work for her to review. Looked at my white count and neutrophil count, and to me they'd had a decent drop. now, I know "normal variations" happen, and things fluctuate even if they drew blood from one hour to the next, but this is enough to get my attention. The docs have always told me they look for trends in labs to identify relapse, and that's what happened last time. I'm getting labs again this Friday, and told Honey if they still concern me I'm just going to go ahead and ask for a bone marrow biopsy

. Much as I hate to have those done, uncertainty is so, so much worse.

I just can't even make myself think about this coming back.

Rachel,

Happy thoughts

I am not going to think its coming back. I do however somewhat understand the fear. Every mole I get, I fear is skin cancer again. I am praying for you girl! Hang in there and stay strong!

Rachel, keeping my fingers crossed that your labs come out well today!

We'll all be thinking of you.
