I have always been a burning bush kind of person. I am convinced that most of us are. We have all been schooled in the big things in the bible. Sea's parting, people coming back from the dead, thousand's fed with a few loaves of bread and some old fish. I know that there are small miracles all around us.
Anti-biotics. IV Tylenol. Stem Cells. Starbucks open at 6:00 am. Lab equipment that operates all night. People that sit for 2 and half hours and give platelets. Smart, motivated nurses and doctors and cleaning ladies and kitchen delivery guys that bring us mint water.... the list goes on.
Daffodils, scarlet runner beans, loving parents, loving siblings, loving friends. Maybe all of these are not considered miracles because we forget to recognize the little things in life and focus on the stuff that makes us crazy. Bad drivers, bad food from the kitchen, beeping monitors and pumps. Low counts, leukemia, infections, bodys that eat platelets, weird unexplained side-affects.
Today's positive miracle: ANC 987
Today's negative challenge Platelets 11 after two infusions.
Twenty Years, Two Hundred and Forty Months, Seven Thousand Days, and Three Hundred Days. Since we started chasing Leukemia.
