The "Channeling Mel Brooks ", Edition

Good morning. Well, I got the lab results back. My hemoglobin count is low. The epogen was started immediately and the dosage was increased from the previous rounds. Now we just wait and see. Yesterday was particularly brutal. And I'm leary of eating solid foods. So right now I'm subsisting off of apple juice, water, chicken noodle soup and the occasional triscuit. The biggest thing is I'm tired. And this is how I channel Mel Brooks. Or maybe Madeline Kahn. My new theme song is, "I'm Tired" sung by Madeline Kahn in Blazing Saddles. Lol. And if you know me, Blazing Saddles is my favorite movie of all time. 

At this point it's a matter of time. It took time for me to degenerate to this point and it'll take time for me to crawl out of this hole. I slept better last night that I had in a while, so that's a hopeful sign. We'll see where this goes. As it stands now, though, I'm still pretty much confined to not only the condo, but getting out of bed is proving to be a challenge. But it's unseasonably warm here right now and who wants to be outside where it's 104 degrees anyway?  Am I right?  Lol.  

Enjoy your weekend. And as much as I really like it out here I do miss the fall in Michigan.  A trip to Blakes or the Big Red apple farm was always a treat. And if you couldn't make it there, you could always go to Franklin Cider Mill. Drink a glass of cider for me!
