My blood has been on a crazy train for 5 years.

Leukopenia
Thrombocytopenia
Platelets wacky
Pancytopenia
Anemic
Bottomed-out hemoglobin

I do the pukey-barfy thing about 3 days a week, usually in the morning. 20 mins of heaves and few mouthfuls of green puke, gets the endorphins going and I’m ready to bounce.

Ren50 gets to the farm at 4:30, im in the chair the cat with a hairball impression, rib cage over my neck, forehead at the bottom my puke bucket. I motion him to just come on in the kitchen and give me 10 mins.

I’ve begged for transfusions before just to freshen me up and top me off. The rarely oblige. They seem to like to keep you weak.
