I don't know what is going on, but I woke up yesterday morning with a stomach ache, again. It progressed to pain, throwing up and diarrhea and I mean having to do laundry poopy stuff. I think this may have to do with acid reflux, because my throat was all burny after I barfed. This morning, I increased my stomach med, so hopefully that will do the trick. I'm still not feeling great, but I am a little better. I am such an awesome wife, that I left my stomach remnants in a small garbage pail on the back porch for Lee to take care of. I know, I'm very thoughtful. Hahaha!
I recently found out something very interesting, that had never occurred to me. When stem cells need to be transported from another state or even country, a courier picks up the cells and stays with them until they get to the hospital where the recipient is. I never thought of that before. I figured that because it's like blood, that the cells were put in a cooler, put on a plane and picked up at the airport by hospital staff. These couriers actually fly around the world to get cells for those of us who need them. It is all anonymous, there is no way to show appreciation. My courier flew to Germany and back and protected my cells until I received them. Thank you to all the couriers out there for being a part of caring for a stranger. It's amazing how many people that I may never know, have been such an intrical part of my life. Another puzzle piece in my recovery. It's all very cool.😎😎
Here's a reminder to share my rap video, so we can all raise awareness about bone marrow donation. Let's keep those couriers really busy!! Bethematch.org for more info.
