Yesterday was the first frustrating day I've had since I was diagnosed with Leukemia.
I was planning on going to New York tomorrow for lunch but late last night I was told I shouldn't travel. Not because anything was wrong, but because I should be cautious. When you have Chemotherapy, the goal is to destroy all the bad white cells (as in the ones with cancer) and then have good ones come back to replace them. At this point, my white blood cell count is pretty much at it's low. Your white count affects your ability to fight infection.
Hopefully I can go to New York next week. I was planning on going by the Clinton Foundation and Campaign Headquarters. I think the thing that is so tough is having worked with a lot of friends over the years was not being able to see them in person since Hillary won. But the good news is we awill all be celebrating soon.
All the best Mark
