June 9: The art of maybe

Today. Not tomorrow. Today was an ortho doc in the morning to plan/schedule on getting a 3cm chunk of loose cartilage removed next week arthroscopically. 2-3 days of crutches and 3-4 weeks recovery. I now weigh recovery times and don't buy lifetime warranties anymore. For me, a knee replacement would be like buying a lifetime warranty - 6-12 months of recovery for 15+ yrs of use. If I reach Aug 16, 2025, it'll be 2 years since my original A.L.L. diagnosis.


Today, the afternoon was the oncologist. Feel good. Hmmm. WBC count is 23, should be 9-11. Keep your head in today, Gary. Don't succumb to the what-if's. Another test next week to determine if I'm trending or ???.


So, enjoy the day before you. Tomorrow, His mercies are new every day. Hug your spouse and kids and tell them you love them.
