Hi Everyone - thanks again for the kind words and advice.

Bailie - definitely overdid it a bit, legs are pretty sore this morning but a good kind of sore - I haven't been able to exercise that much in the last couple of years and it feels great being able to do so - my goal is to get really fit as I continue to recover.

They are keeping my hemoglobin above 8 via transplants, so I'm still quite dependent on blood, but hopefully that will improve. My Hg has been ranging between 5 and 8 prior to transplant, so I think having consistently higher RBC's helps - but I also give a lot of credit to the people praying for me and for my improved attitude, faith and gratitude. I especially thank everyone on this forum for their prayers and good thoughts -

Its a little frustrating the numbers aren't going higher faster - but that is where keeping my faith gets both harder and more important.

Tracey - sorry to hear about you delays - stay strong!

Waiting for this morning's numbers - i'll let you know how it goes. Thanks again to everyone.

Paul
