      From suzieg63 August 10

      I am doing OK here. Just real tired with the low counts. I am not getting Neulasta as I have had one of those "rare but serious side effects" that they mumble about in ads for it. The last time I took it was in 2004 and it made me septic with a WBC of 46,000... yes 46,000. I ended up in ICU for 10 days and almost into organ failure. So, we stay way from it. I am just taking it easy. My folks will be here Tuesday and my grandaughter's birthday is this week and the county fair, so I am resting up for that. I am a judge at the fair for the Talent show and the childrens arts and crafts. Bucky Covington and Lady Antebellum are booked for the main attraction, so I hope I get to meet them. Take Care, Suzette
