Hi Susan and everyone else. Well another hospital stay but I just got home yesterday. This time it was phenomena so I was started on an iv antibiotic which I will have with me for about two more weeks. Anyway it was my goal to celebrate my wife's birthday which was on May 20th and mine is actually today and also my second birthday of my bone marrow transplant back in May 21st 1989.
So I just put my golden attitude hat on (Zavie Millers zero club number one is what he personally assigned to me in my home a very long time ago. So what happened? I got my AZZ right out of bed with my IV pole and got out of my room and started walking. I walked three times a day up and down the hallways of my ward. Once I got back to my room I rested then grabbed onto the sinks counter top and did some modified push up's. I kept on using that plastic breathing machine to suck air into my lungs so that I was able to cough up whatever was in my lungs I was finally able to make the float reach 3,500 and do it for ten consecutive times in a row. One of my doctors was standing right there and he said that he couldn't even do that himself. Well I did all of this for a week and I was finally discharged but with a picc line and a portable antibiotic pump that I am able to carry around with me. I have a home care nurse that changes the IV bag every other day or so. Today is some of my doctor appointments as well as my blood work. Man am I happy about that picc line no more needle holes all over my black and blue arms [?] Listen folks please don't consider me to be a super hero but someone that has a kick AZZ healing attitude, and as long as I am alive it will always be with me. I told all of you this story so that you will realize that you can help yourself by having this kind of attitude. This is what I did when I used to live in that small plastic bubble (luminous Air Flow Chamber, and I will never forgot how it helped me. Not the chamber but my attitude. I beg each one of you to try and do what I did because it works for me and with a little effort it can for you. Just start very slowly and let your mind control your body. Remember what I once told you, Leukemia is a disease of not only the body but the mind as we.. 8's, Marty On Wed, May 20, 2015 at 4:28 PM, rszim0702 via CMLHope < cmlhope@googlegroups.com> wrote: > Guess you and I are kind of on the same track.....both were off everything > for quite some time, now my number is .01%, near 0....and you are, too! > Every day is a gift.
