-hoooo! What a fall, what a dash into dark into light, what a plunge ,what a glide, what a fright!
So, who knew that Cyclophosphamide is mustard acid. Jeez. What a trip, what a time, what a life.
I'm at home now, recovering. You wouldn't believe the dreams I've been having these days.
Moving on. I said I'd post my timetable for the following months. Here it is!
16TH JULY
Blood tests and possible blood transfusions
17TH JULY
1.Surgical procedure (Hickmann-line put into my chest)
2.Beginning of the stem cell harvest. They're collecting my own stem cells via bloodstream. This can take up to a week before they have the sufficient amount.
9TH AUGUST
Stem Cell Transplant:
1. BEAM chemotherapy for 5 days. This destroys my bone marrow, as in, leaving me without immunity.
2. Returning back my stem cells. This is called day 0 or rebirth.
3. Waiting for my own stem cells to find their way in my body. The engraftment usually takes about 10 to 15 days.
4. And that's it! I'm done! Adios, fuck you cancer! Hope you stay out of my life!
Zero immunity, rebirth etc... Unreal. And I thought Muhammed Ali was a fighter! I feel sorry and happy for you at the same time. But hell yeah, fuck off cancer! I allways find it hard to spell your name Mr. Hodgdog or whatever, but I finally got it! Woohoo! It's spelled: A S S H O L E.
