Conlon said Vlad's white cell count is 1.2 today; for all practical purposes, he's neutropenic again. He feels OK, though he's a little less OK every day, which is normal. He's having very intense cold sensitivity in his fingers and toes. He cannot touch anything cold, like stuff from the fridge. My friend Linda had the same side-effect after her chemo for colon cancer several years ago.
We finally had to say "no" to going to Sasha's birthday party Saturday night at Russian Bear. Vlad's going to have a lower white count by then. He'd be a sneeze or cough away from a fever and being forced back into the hospital. Too many sneezes and coughs at the restaurant.
Bill called and we talked a long while. He's a real comfort.
My PC is not happy. I worked at home today, but it was difficult with all the crashing software and rebooting. I'm going downtown tomorrow to work.
We'll be home this weekend, working on our cabin fever.
