First YouTube video




My internet connection at the hospital and home is equivalent to dial-up.  I gave up on updating last night and remembered I had a camera, so I recorded my thoughts and am uploading them now at a local restaurant while I attempt to eat.  The doctor has me taking nine pills of magnesium in addition to one pint intravenously.  It is hell on the GI tract.  My appetite is nil but if I do not eat, the other twelve medications make me even sicker.

Let me know what you think about the YouTube thing.  I may be using it more in the future.  If you go to my videos you can see some clips that my cousin recorded while I underwent the stem cell transplant.

    Hey Roger,

    The video worked great. The message is so sad though. I know sometimes the hardest part isn't what we thought it would be. Seems like going through the year long wait for your transplant and all that is described in your blog would be the hardest part. Not the home stretch. I hope the Myelofibrosis you mentioned previously turned out to be the residue you had mentioned it could be and that your catheter is out soon and you can start feeling more like your old self again.
