On the road to taking care of this: Chronic Rejection!
Well, Well. my blood count is now off the charts. So we are finally ready to begin "photopheresis" on Monday. I can't believe I would be excited... but I am actually ready to get this show on the road. The treatment will last 15 to 18 months.
I will recieve one treatment on Monday. I will stay in Bham and get my 2nd treatment on Tuesday. Remember, I have a wonderful guardian angel "Carol" who happens to have an apartment in Bham, well she is letting me use her apt for whenever I get my treatments. I am so thankful for Carol. Thank you BJ for sharing your sister with me.
I will let you all know more after I get home on Monday.

Hi stranger - sorry to hear you're still having to make medical history - but as usual you sound like you're approaching it with your take no prisoners attitude.
I'll be thinking of you. I'm good - waiting to find out if I will have a job after NBC takes over The Weather Channel. So keep your chin up and keep me posted.
Hey Susan,
I have been wondering for quite sometime how you have been. I was sorry to find out that you are having chronic rejection. I pray that this Photopheresis treatment will take care of the problem and have you feeling 100% better soon.
You are often in our thoughts and prayers and continue to be a big inspiration in our lives!
God Bless,
Jody Gramling

Susan,
You have been on my mind a great deal lately. Your blog was a wonderful idea, thanks for including me. I see that you are still the same "next event" Susan, some things never change and that really includes your incredible altitude. You are in my prayers.
