Had a rough day today.No energy,I try to play tennis nada.
Yesterday checking my hematology was very lost 7.8.
Tomorrow I get one unit of blood to bring this up some.
am I living on borrowed time.
Have to get an injection and blood transfusion to stay alive.
How long will this last?till my body reject the injection and the blood.
I do no mean to sound morbid
That is how I feel today
hope tomorrow will be a much better day with the transfusion.
Have a good afternoon.

Dear friend, We are all living on borrowed time from the moment we were born. It is up to us to do as much as we can with it. Still, there are days when we want to forget everything and just make believe it is not happening.
Still I met a very wise child once. He called me to tell me that he was going to be an entomologist when he grew up. That would have been nothing, except for the fact that he was dying of cancer and he knew it. He was 7 and he was my grandson, Tomás.

I know it is difficult. My grandfather went through the same thing. He finally said no more transfusions. He just got sick of the whole routine, and truthfully, he wasn't feeling very well.. Maybe tomorrow will be a better day.

You are entitled to feel that way once in a while but life is so worth living and having a positive attitude can help make that happen.

Although I am not sick like you, I do feel like I am slowing dying, I am taking care of everyone else but no one takes care of me.

I hope you'll feel better! Sometimes it is weird to think that injections keep alive, but the importance is that you can live with this help.
