Zoom Zoom - Mark’s white count is now 5.43 - WOW.

I could not believe it had jumped that much. No wonder his bones are hurting!! This also means no more tummy shots - I know he is really thrilled about that. He was feeling rather yucky yesterday and will get a unit of blood today at the clinic. We are expecting the clinic to be packed today since many patients could not make it in this weekend with all the frozen roads.

Last night to celebrate no longer being neutropenic he bought ice cream from the Sonic next door, sorry to say it didn’t taste right. Of course nothing taste good right now and I still “stink”. I try to keep the smells to a minimum - lotions, hairspray, scrub my teeth, but it happens every time anyway. He can officially call me a “Stinking Wife”.

The pantry and frig are about empty and I am trying not to restock in hopes of getting out of here this week. Perhaps we will get a dismissal appointment set up today.

Update on Tom - he is much better . Maybe he will be out of the hospital today.

We still have snow and it is so beautiful. The roads are clear thank goodness - no more ice.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Monday and February first.

Love to you all from Little Rock,

Karen

Did anyone see the show last night about the Duggar family with the 18 kids from AR. The Mama had her 19 child at UAMS
