I'm getting oot, ya dancer.
Big bag of drugs, sharps bin for the needles used to clear my line and an assortment of leftover food all packed. Just waiting on Corri with a holdall to pack clothes and I'm outta here. Whoohoo.
Will blog my progress some more once home and until blood counts get to sensible levels. This morning's neutrophils didn't move from yesterday - oops - glad Consultant made his decision before he saw that - hey, I'm fine.
Total White Cell count did go up to 0.8. I've to come back in Monday for blood checks.
So, just waiting on Corri and then hame.
Would really like to thank, from the bottom of my heart, all the fantastic staff here at ARI. They're great professionals and darn fine human beings to boot. I could not have been in better hands and I'm profoundly indebted to them all, from Jean who cleaned the room to Dr Culligan who called most of my shots. Political Point: Whatever nurses are paid, aint enough! Probably. I should perhaps look up what they are paid. Maybee it is enough. Ok, I'll pass on that one for now.
Thanks also to all you for being arsed enough to read my blog and post comments. I'm deeply grateful. Makes me feel wanted, even if it's all just self-indulgant pish like what Kenny-C says.
Later...
