Day Sixty Nine

Woke up this morning and the cold that has been threatening for the last couple of days has finally arrived, with a little cough on top. Feeling not too bad but had the day off work today. The problem I now face is that on Wednesday I am having blood taken in order to ascertain what my white blood cell count is. I am at risk of infection at the moment and if my white count is too low, I cannot have the chemotherapy. And I want my chemotherapy. So I need to avoid coughs and sneezes to a certain degree. My friend from work actually phoned me up this morning to tell me that she had a sore throat - she was worried about being around me, bless her. Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on your perspective!) I had already let work know I was not going in - so she was ok to! Sorry sweetie! I am not too worried about having the blood taken, there is nothing I can do about it. I either get my treatment on Friday or I don't, simple as that. Fingers crossed that I will be ok.
