Next a trip north to the Texas town of Waxahachie (Reputed to be in the language of the Kiowa Tribe of Indians to say "You stepped in Buffalo.. eh... droppings!") for my second of five shots to get my white blood count elevated. Many, many, many thanks to Jill Collier, my buddy Brian's lovely wife who chauffeured me up and back in a delightful manner.
The second shot seems to set off a side effect of aches and pains or my age old rheumatoid arthritis wants back in on the action. Either way some BenGay will do the trick or the heating pad will. Knock on wood--
Back in the Big C, I than made my daily trip to the Post Office and HEB, then off to wilds of radiation-land to once more be bombarded by left over bits of Little Boy or Fat Man to stamp out my cancer cells.
Finally, I drove to Wallyworld's gas station for a fill up of my old Toyota in case I have to go it alone tomorrow back to Waxahachie for shot number three if Greg is indisposed by his abscessed tooth. BTW Walmart unleaded was $1.829 and that was the cheapest I've seen it in a blue moon or nine.
So, home again, home again with more old films from TCM and Amazon to while away the hours.
Now, all y'all take care and God Bless,
Danny
What? No jiggity, jig?
My youngest son ended up with a blood clot in his lung last year from his chemo treatments. I guess that can be one of the side effects. They put him on a blood thinner for the remainder of his treatments, so it's good your cardiologist is on the ball. Keep plugging along Bender2. We're rootin' and prayin' for you every day.
Started at 8 AM at my cardiologist who will be changing my blood thinner medications to keep me from having a stroke down the pike.
Be careful with the new blood thinners. You are not supposed to take NSAIDS for your arthritis and the blood thinners.
There are days, I really need the relief from them, but we can’t go there.
Good luck and hang in there.
Are you on Eliquis blood thinner? I am..................
You tuckered me out just reading about your day. Keep on truckin since you ain’t doing no ... um never mind.

Hey Danny...Thanks for keeping us in the loop. I will keep praying for you!
God Bless and keep the updates coming - it helps as a reminder to say another prayer and you are setting an example that so many would be incapable of with your apparent good mood...here’s hoping God still has big plans for you.
Thanks for the update. I can see the radiation hasn’t zapped your sense of humor.
Hugs and prayers.
Sounds like a good after action report, brother! Good to hear that you are mobile and your normal sense of humor is intact! Keep hammering away at the cancer! You can and will kick it’s arse!
GOD BLESS!!
Stay positive. We need you around here.
Great attitude. Praying for you!
Danny, many prayers continuing. Hugs and more hugs.
You hang in there Danny. NFL season is coming and we need you healthy, FRiend
Thanks for the update, Danny! Continuing prayers.
