Happy Epiphany!
Whenever I go for my blood counts, I am always anxious for a few days prior. It's inevitable. But the news continues to be good - my white blood cell numbers continue to remain stable. They bounce slightly within a 10,000 count that, in terms of leukemia where the white blood cells can jump by hundreds of thousands, is very small. They do not increase as is expected. My other counts also continue to be stable.
I am so grateful!
I have been tired and draggy since October and am considerably behind on life. I've decided that this is just the way it is! and decided to quit fretting about it. I have a "project" brain and feel terrible guilt when I am unable to achieve any, but I am learning to balance things or just let them go. Right now I am rebuilding my exercise routine with my friend Marg since I seriously derailed this Summer in Atlanta. Initially, I am more fatigued from the physical effort, but I will be stronger again and become more energetic the more I do it. And I have been free from infections for 3 weeks now(!) probably from faithfully wearing my mask so things are looking up.
Thank you for your ongoing concern and love.

Ahhhh. So glad to hear this news. I admire your pluck to get up and exercise. I still can't get past the darned pain of it. So I flap more these days.
The Lord is so good! I thank him for your continued health. I also pray for lots of energy for you.

Wow, what good news! God is a good and loving Father. You continue to be in my personal prayers and in the prayers at church. May your energy continue as well as your strength as you continue with the exercise program.

Thank you all. I am blessed and grateful! I just noticed these comments which is strange because the blog is supposed to notify me. Hmmmm.. the blog and I will have to have a talk about this.
