Day +63

i've been doing a lot better lately. The last 3 visits to clinic have not had to have any transfusions or meds and stomach is feeling a bit stronger. Doctors are FINALLY letting me return to CT today - looking forward to getting home. Will have to come back here 1 or 2x a week for a while to have blood counts, etc. checked. Have spent my days at the Ronald McDonald house watching the Yankees catch up to the Red sox - would like to mention we are only 71/2 games behind . . . playing the Mets this weekend so we should continue to catch up!
Thank you out to everyone for all the support for the 70 days that i have been here in Boston.

P.S. : Thank you to: Jayme, can't thank you enough for all sports memorabilia that you gave me - its beyond anything i could have asked for. Thank you to Lisa, for delivering gifts and coming to visit me.

Day +55

Have had a couple days off from the hospital and just hung out in our apartment at Ronald McDonald house. Starting to feel more like a human being again. Got out on the porch a few times. Today i am at the Jimmy Fund Clinic at Dana Farber again and looks like its gonna be another long day - need to get blood trans and IV meds. Just saw my buddy Jacob from Dr. Joes office - waved at him thru the window - glad to see him looking so good and speaking about looking good . . . how bout them Yankees !! - 10 1/2 games and closing . . .

Day +51, +52

Finally got out of the hospital late Sunday afternoon. Still not feeling too good - still nauseous and weak but change of scenery might help. Today i am at the Jimmy Fund Clinic at Dana Farber and looks like its gonna be an all day thing - need to get platelets and IV meds. I get my own room with tv, and found a wireless connection to computer. And how about A-Rod last night!! . .

Day +50

Didn't quite make it out the door of the hospital today. They need to check some of my levels tomorrow morning so i have to stay one more day Docs say that tomorrow i should be getting out . . . i hope they mean it this time! . . .

Day+49

This is officially my last night at the Childrens Hospital. Want to thank everyone for all the cards, gifts, blog comments, prayers, and support for the last 57 days here at the hospital. I will be moving on to Ronald McDonald house tomorrow for a couple of weeks and will try to keep blogging when i can (no internet there). Nurses are all very upset that i am leaving but i guess they will have to get over it. They are sending me out of here with a ton of meds so i will be spending most of my time just trying to get them all down. As i speak it is 9-3 Yankees - things are starting to change for the better in all directions . . . the comeback begins . . .
