HB and me

Big weekend here in OP. Conor and Annie and Harrison arrived for a visit. Many thanks to Sally for collecting them from the airport Friday night. I went over to my house to have a visit on my way to the clinic Saturday morning. We all played in the big king size bed and then Harrison (HB) dozed off for a few minutes. Here is the photo of the weekend.


Unfortunately, the only photo because little HB ran a fever while I was at the clinic Saturday morning and had an upset tummy and so off limits to me. Do you remember that line in "My Fair Lady" where Professor Higgins storms around his study saying "Damn, Damn, Damn, Damn." "Damn, Damn, Damn, Damn." That's how I feel.

So Conor stayed home with him and Annie went to the wedding with friends and I stayed away. Peggy joined me at M&D's for dinner and a movie.

On the upside, the clinic visit was about 30 min long this morning, just the antibiotic. The liver counts were down just a little bit yesterday and will be checked again tomorrow. So far I haven't had any more blood transfusions since they lowered the threshold for giving me blood, just a couple units of platelets.

I am losing weight and I feel like every day is a battle to consume enough calories and protein to not lose. Protein bars, protein shakes, high protein cereal, beans, and lotsa chocolate! I received a recorded message yesterday that I have an appointment with the nutritionist at the clinic on Tuesday. I hope I can at least stop the loss by then. No telling what she will come up with for me to eat!
