Update

Today is my 27th day in the hospital. By the day's end I will have had my 25th dosage of Arsenic Trioxide, which my doctors assure me is going well. I remain mystified by their lingo, and my stats remain stubbornly fixed in a neutral position. The doctors remind me each day that average remission is 30 days, and for some up to 60 days.

I am tired, have laryngitis, and get violent chills in the evening, despite having no fever (it is an effect of the arsenic).

So to all gentle readers: I hope you appreciate this day, your health, etc. I don't intend to write until there is something new to report.
