Peaks and Valleys

Allen, That is an interesting story. What immediately came to mind to ask, if you don't mind, what do you do at this time to help you get back?? Lose the depression?? Is this a time when you concentrate more on your training? Does that help you cope and get through at all? This is what I want to pas...

Hello All

The 13 isolation rooms were full and when they showed my wife and I through the wing, I mentioned how young some of the patients were. The nurse told me the average age in the rooms was 25 y...

HLA Registry

Thank you Kevin and you are right on about the donor situation. There are three kinds of bone marrow transplants. One is having a donor.

Concentration

When I was in the hospital, sometime after I had the bone marrow transplant, there was absolutely no sleep. I remember laying there, my mind in complete confusion from all the heavy chemo and other meds. My concentration was zero. I couldn't keep one thing on my mind for more that 5 seconds. That's ...

I at one point in my life was under extreme pressure working my business. I was close to a nervous breakdown. The Dr. put me on valium. That I couldn't accept. Got...
