This cold won't let go.

Okay, it started December 5th. My calendar isn't in front of me. I got a Yolondelis treatment and then was sick with a virus (or deteriorating liver lesion). Then Mom and Sister visited. Sick, with too few platelets, the oncologist wanted to admit me. I dodged admission long enough for my Sister to smuggle my daughter in for a special 2 day surprise visit. The week between Christmas and New Years' I was admitted. In two weeks, a total four pints of packed red blood cells, as well as a lot of electrolytes. I'm feeling much better. Even after that stay, I was still coughing. I skipped a scheduled Yolandolis treatment last week, so I could kick the cold. I'm two days past second Yolandis treatment. I feel good, playing on the computer, walking around the house, but not the yard or neighborhood. I tend to have stomach upset, and am taking the ant-acid that the MD prescribed. Anyway, just announcing that the darn old cold is gone. Finally.
