Many of you may be wondering why I’ve been MIA for the last few weeks.  Well, I’ve been in the hospital.  What began as a serious flu for several days resulted in a week’s long hospital stay with my white blood cell count plunging to a low of 0.8 – considered without a doubt neutropenic.  As a point of reference, the normal range is 4.0 to 12.0.  I was isolated and a good 25 bags of IV antibiotics were pumped into my system via IV.  It was NOT fun!  It’s all flu related.  The flu this year is harsh to say the least.  I’m taking a bit more time off so my body can catch up but wanted to put up a post so everyone isn’t in the dark.  I have others that will stand in in the future if necessary if something comes up and time gets away too much.

I’m planning to get back to normal life next week if the counts are there.  Sitting around is not fun! 

More to come when I have more energy…
