 day +6:  staying low but feeling great

1/10/2013

All blood work came back good again today.  All the important parameters were staying at good levels (for someone who wants to be neutropenic)  Really didn't budge much from yesterday's values so we are relatively stable.

Today's Blood Work:

Hemoglobin:  114
Leukocytes:  0.08
Platelets: 36

So far, nothing too new to report.  I would expect the levels should slowly start to give a bit, since this is day +6, but as Dr. Fedorenko states, every body is slightly different and things will occur according to how your internal machinery makes it happen.  Aren't we truly amazing beings!
Short and sweet today as outside of the hemoglobin being up slightly, not much else to report on.  2 continuing education courses done for shoulder rehab....and also maybe a bit of Tiger Woods PGA  golf APP.  It's all about multitasking!
All the best from Moscow!

Hey Keith ... Clan Cowan is cheering for you (just as loud as during game #8 in Moscow back in '72).
Seems you are in good hands and your attitude is at a high level. All good. Your re-entry to Canada will be most welcomed. If a mantra is required, have checked with the Ti-Cats and you can use 'Oskee Wee Wee'.
Special having your wife and Mom visit ... for sure.

At your office this AM. Seems I over done the 'mountain' at Mooney's Bay. It's fun crawling abooot the floor. Amazing what one can find to do whilst doon there, writhing in agony, Laddie!
Soon! Best Wishes/Look Forward, Ross, Carol, Scott Cowan

Hey bro, as your body is busy recovering, I'm wondering what you are doing -- are you reading or are you even allowed to have books in there? TV? (though it's prob. Russian!). Do you talk to staff much? Are you meditating? Reading funny books? (laughter energy so good for healing they say...) I'm sure you are sleeping and relaxing a lot, but knowing you you are optimizing (and maybe even going a bit nuts?) during this quiet time...would love to know more.

Visualizing all levels rising...

XO

Dee
