IMPORTANT HEALTH RELATED MESSAGE 5: Hi! It's been a while! I'm still alive! So much has happened (good and bad) since my last update (which was forever ago)! I'll keep it short and summarized as best I can! I'm currently around halfway-ish through my 2nd cycle of the IV drug (called blinatumomab), after having all of September as a break, due to bl00d counts being too low. My birthday also came and went (Oct 17th)! I'm in th...
IMPORTANT HEALTH RELATED MESSAGE 4: Yday, i had my first outpatient cancer doc appt. They unloaded so much info on me it left me pretty scatter brained for a few hrs after and needed a bit to relax lol.

IMPORTANT HEALTH RELATED MESSAGE 2: I got to go home on 6/20/24 from the hospital! Of course, I have plenty of follow up appts and will have to battle chronic myeloid leukemia for the rest of my life. I'm definitely improving, though, since I'm not so swollen everywhere, my spleen isn't super enlarged, my white bl00d cell count isn't sky high, etc. I've been taking 1 ponatinib pill (those are EXPENSIVE. look it up. Thank good...
IMPORTANT HEALTH RELATED MESSAGE: Hi, everyone, as you know, I've been not around lately (when I used to be around and posted daily, etc.). Firstly, pardon me as my vision is now blurred, so it is hard to type posts. Recently, I've been in the hospital battling Chronic Myeloid Leukemia. I got told i have it last Tuesday. It'll be a week soon and my health is seemingly improving. That's not to say I'll be back any time soon, a...
