I couldn't sleep so well... I woke up many times. Well today I got the venous line inserted and they took some more blood tests.
A Russian lady arrived so she'll be my roommate. She had a Stroke. She only speaks German and Russian....
I'm receiving a saline solution while waiting for the chemotherapy.
The leading expert on the hematological department stopped by. Famous and reknowned Dr. Ho and his colleagues were here. It was a pleasure to meet them. Dr. Ho asked about my medical history and said I would be closely monitored.
12.57 started chemotherapy
The chemo took about an hour. No side effects so far...
The Russian lady already left so I'm alone!!! :o) I enjoy listening to Alan Parson's music and being in the Internet. Maryam stopped by in the morning and then Nachita came and brought me her good vibes and great sense of humor. We watched my cousin Avi's videos and we laughed a lot.
I'm feeling well and very optimistic. I've been eating everything. Who said hospital food was bad? It's delicious!!!
This is my new inspirational video:

16.55 I feel well, but I'm tired. Although I've asked many times for the medical schedule arranged for me and none has answered yet, if everything is like with Bassam, then it should be two days hospitalized receiving cyclophosphamide (chemo), then 5 days approx. getting Neupogen injections to make stem cells mobilize to the blood, then the apheresis (stem cells withdraw), and then we'll start with the harsh chemo. When I'm neutropenic (no immunity), I'll have the stem cell reimplantation and we'll wait for the engraftment.
