Roller Coaster

Well..............there is a reason this is called a roller coaster!!!    Yesterday was such an up day but today...... As I am sitting in the computer room this morning waiting for the washer to finish  I heard our toilets gurgling!  That means only one thing!  I run to the mud room only to see sewage coming up the drain!  Now normally this is just a royal pain to get someone to come out and rod our main drain.  But Bill has no immune system so the thought of bacteria in the house was enough to set me in a tail spin! I jumped into action, we stopped the washer and I grabbed the bleach!   Long story short I have someone coming out tomorrow to take care of it so we are just rationing our waste water today!

Next the trip to get Bill's blood checked was not unexpected but....  White Blood .7( meaning no defense system)  Red was still decent but platelets were only 11 thousand.  Normal is between 145 and 400 thousand.  So they ordered platelets and we will go back to the infusion center at 5 today!

I hope this is the bottom of the dip and we are on our way back up!  Molly is on the road coming home so that for sure makes a brighter day!  I haven't told her yet she can't take a shower!

  1. Oye! I know that sound, we live in the country and had a failed sump. That was a few years ago and if freaked me out so I could not imagine if my hubby had no immune system. Hang tough, it is rough because things that normally are just a bump can seem like a cliff. I have thoughts of buying stock in clorox!!
