Good news for you! The world's shortest post from me so far

Enjoy my unusual shortwind while you can, but I wanted to update quickly after today's doctor's appointment.

Latest stats:
hematocrit number was low, so I got 2 bags of O+ blood (thank you, anonymous blood donors! kisskisskiss)

platelet count only fell from 36k 01/16/07 to 24k today 01/19/07

What's this mean? Platelets low, sure, but good news as far as I'm concerned. I go back Monday if I can hold a good number and will get platelets. And watch me hold a good number.

So, this has preheated my E-Z-Bake buttbone oven with two bags of blood, and now I'm off to take good care of those new red blood cells and take care/no running with scissors/perhaps bake up some baby platelets myself because they didn't transfuse me with any today. If you need to know straight from the Horse Serum's Mouth, I absolutely believe rest heals and restores your body; no overworking for you anymore; do not let anyone take away your sleep, babies. In fact, I coulda showed the restorative effects with photos with what just a two-hour nap did to heal my body, but dude, I respect you too much to do that to you. Really, I do.

Tonight when I'm dosed in the PredniZone, I will return emails I have been writing in my mind for days now, I promise. But for now, zzzzzzzzzzzzzz oh, and you -- have I told you lately that you're awesome? Oh, and one more thing, if you don't get out and enjoy the weekend, I'll flip you like a pancake! With maple syrup if you need it.
