I'm beginning to think I've hit the chemo jackpot - I thought for sure my luck would run out and I'd be nauseous on the Busulphan but apart from a dry mouth, it's had no affect on me at all!
Visitors keep telling me they're surprised I look so healthy and normal. Even though my Hb is below 8 and platelets below 10 without the transfusions and my neutrophils are already at 0.12 (impressive, until you consider they were 0.2 when I was admitted!).
Tomorrow my donor has his stem cell harvest, and it's my last day of chemo! Two reasons to celebrate...
