My white blood count is now up to 2.4. More importantly, my ANC level is up to 2000. ANC is the front line of my immune system, and any number above 1000 means it’s working adequately. So if you’re sick and you sneeze on me, you are no longer likely to kill me. You’ll just give me a cold.
So I’m basically out of the woods. But not entirely. I have months of recuperation ahead, and complete success won’t be confirmed until a follow-up biopsy in 60 days. And then I have a difficult decision about whether I should enter maintenance therapy.
In the meantime, one of my sister’s graphic arts pals whipped up the image on the right. It is titled “Kevin the Badass Blogger” and available in a limited edition to those savvy enough to copy stuff from the internet. For extra credit: can you figure out whose body I’ve been shopped onto?
And speaking of images, last night I thought I’d try to improve things around here by downloading Photoshop Express to replace the crappy freeware image editing app I’ve been using. So I did. But apparently PE works only with a keyboard and mouse. It has no touch support. In 2015. WTF?
