As for me I would rather you know what I'm going through so that if something
were to happen and I all of a sudden it stopped posting on the list people
wouldn't wonder where I disappeared to. Much like we told people that I had it
when we first found out because no one was sure what type of leukemia it was
and what might happen we weren't sure if I would have to undergo high-dose
chemotherapy or if I would even make it. If truth be told I nearly didn't but
I'm well on my way to recovery now and my death no longer feels quite so close.
In fact my doctors are rather optimistic. Except for some separate balance
related issues that aren't related to the cancer things are okay minus the
constant fatigue and so on. I have a bone marrow biopsy on the 10th of July so
let's hope that shows good results. I don't feel much better but I do feel
calmer about the situation. All of the tests say everything is fine but my body
hasn't quite figure that out yet.
