I am doing pretty well here on East 8. On Tuesday they gave me a unit of platelets because they were way down and then again today they gave me another unit of platelets. I haven't had to get any red blood cells yet, maybe tomorrow, or with lunch maybe not it my stem cells start the engrafting process and start making them for me.
The doctors come to see me each day, but don't spend too long because my situation is boring, just waiting for the stem cells to kick in and take over. Still hopeful of getting out of here by sometime next week if I can keep eating and drinking well enough for the staff here.
In some ways I am pretty lucky that I am locked up inside here with my hepa filters running. Patty is being hit very hard with allergies and has spent most of today taking medication and sleeping.
Not too much else going on, I've been checking out the windows in the hallways and I think we'll be able to see a few fireworks that will be going off on the 4th. Hope you all have have a safe holiday weekend.

We'll be sure to set off a few extra sparklers for you both.
