White cell production continues unabated. More importantly, today's ANC (see yesterday's post) increased four-fold. One of the doctor's assistants came in today and said I'm the fastest cord grafter they've ever seen here at Dana Farber. She did suggest my size may have something to do with it. Dr. Antin says I shouldn't count my chickens yet because my counts could plateau for a while. I told him that as long as they plateaued at ANC 500, I didn't care, because I'd be out of here.
Surprise!!!! Mariel flew in from Phillie today to spend the weekend. She's here in my room right now, on the phone with Mark discussing running strategy. Marty's uncomfortably snoozing in a chair.
The better I seem to be doing, the harder it is to be trapped here. I need to be amused, and you, my readers, can help.
What day do you predict I'll go home, and why am I defying the odds?

I'm going to go with Sept. 25th, because that's William Faulkner's birthday...
I guess you can look on the bright side this weekend: you don't have to fast.
I predict tomorrow; just read this comment everyday and I'll eventually be right....as for why you're defying the odds: cosmic love waves ;)
