I have now completed injection 01/day 01 of Vidaza to treat Myelodysplasia (bone marrow disorder). I have 6 more double injections of 150ml total (2 needles of 75ml each) to complete this course for a total of 7 days, then 21 days off. I will then start again, repeating this cycle until it is transplant time.

Currently awaiting a very busy Hematology Pharmacy to dispense my haul of drugs to take home (5 different drugs). I think I'll be off with the fairies later (feeling light-headed).

Apparently, I should be meeting with 'The Transplant Team' soon - a group of transplant nurses who will keep me updated with how the search for a donor is progressing.

From time to time, I hear an urgent Helicopter come in to land on top of the hospital and I am reminded of how blessed I am to be receiving life giving drugs and soon a cure.

Thank you for reading,
Much Love,
