The End is Nigh (in a good way!)

Not the end, really!

I've had all kinds of grief with Blogger and Google, mainly in getting it to remember my passwords.  As a result I was unable to update this blog for over a month as Google insisted on sending password rescue messages to my US cellphone (which is a fat lot of good when I am in New Zealand.)  So I have starter a new blog - the Mycroft Chronicles - that is going to focus a lot less on my multiple myeloma and be more about how bloody great I feel, at least until I wake up from my cma and realise I have been on vegetative life support for the last 3 years.
In case I forget how I created this blog (which is inevitable), I will just remind myself that is from my pom...@gmail.com userid. I will then delete all the myriad google accounts I appear to have acquired.

All quiet on the Western front

Now that the drama is over, I'm backing off the daily bog entries.  I'll keep the blog going and record any significant events (like today's farewell to what was left of my beard) but, other than that, it's going to be an occasional update. Today saw my first serious venture outside since Christmas - about a half mile walk on the concrete paths at J B Lewis soccer ground.  I've spent many happy afternoons there, reffing soccer, and doing around 10 miles on a good afternoon.  Today's half mile walk darn near did me in so my fitness has a way to go.  At a more appropriate level, I started the 4 dimensional map of London (it includes time) that Susan gave me for Christmas.  As I lived there, using the picture this time really would be cheating though I'm hanged if I know where various companies' head office buildings are unless they are vaguely notable / ugly (talking to you, Lloyd's Bank). I also forgot to thank someone very important yesterday but n...

I'm not in elementary school any more

Yesterday, Susan drove me to Wake Forest for another checkup and a load of shots.  (She drove because I have managed to catch an evil cold which has rendered me more moronic than usual.)  On the way there and back, we both developed a deep loathing for people driving large pickups which seem to come with a "road ownership certificate".  I got about 2 hours sleep last night, crumbling into bed and going to sleep almost instantly but waking up at 12:30 a.m. convinced that was all the sleep I needed.  I beg to differ. Anyway, I have a comparatively busy day at school today.  I suspect some of the robotics class will need a hand getting some of their monsters operational while I want to start working with the programming class on making their programs idiot-proof (I wonder if I am allowed to use that term). My upper arms hurt from the barrage of 8 shots I had yesterday (the nurses work in pairs, shoving their needles in at the same time from opposite sides which ge...

Day +100 is here!!!

OK - this is it.  Day 100 (plus a few, courtesy of weekends, Easter and stuff).  So we've driven possibly one last time to Wake Forest Baptist Health cancer center to see what kind of shape I'm in.  I've looked at my num bres, of course, and they are all either right in the range they should be in or very close.  The only ones that stand out are my Kappa and Lambda free light chains - Lambda is OK but Kappa is still too high but way down on where it started (as in it started at 76 and is now down to 2.2 so I guess that's an improvement).  I don't get a lot of readings for these things as they involve collecting my urine for 24 hours and then having it analysed in the lab whereas the blood tests are analysed while-u-wait. I hope it's not a sign - the harp downstairs (or is it a piano?) - is playing "Morning Has Broken", my unfavourite hymn from school.  If all goes well today, I will be going back to school kinda unannounced over the next couple of day...
