oh baby baby

oh gosh-this strike-
i hope people still show up tonight at the benefit.
i do not think i will be going because it is probably too dangerous and it is late. i have had to do a lot of running around lately and i've been up at all hours of the night, writing papers.
this week has been crazy.
today, i had to go to hackensack hospital because ....they needed 6 tubes of blood for me.
ThE REASON??
there are some potential donors that are willing to go in and see if they can be my matches-so they will need to get more of a high resolution testing for this--THIS IS AMAZING NEWS! It is another step...we're getting there.
while i was at hackensack today, i was being my charismatic self and started talking to the male receptionist there-who is really cool-and after telling him i would kill him if i had to hospitalized because he was making me get my vitals...i ended up finding he is a transplant survivor-he had an autologous transplant which is a little different because it is the person's own cells verse the type i am having an allogenic which is someone else's. But it was still really inspiring to see him looking so great-and being 5 years in remission. he had lymphoma...
So after the blood, i had to go to the dentist because iv'e been having some pain-it almost seemed like nerve damage-but it was from my bite being off-the reason: when i got my tooth filling last week-because i was numb, i could not tell it was off and was not biting down as aggressively because of this also-so in a few days, it should be feeling better...
i have more papers to write-and more research to do-
i am tired-
i really hope people come tonight to the show-
it is at the living room at 154 ludlow between stanton and rivington-
it starts at 10pm and is $20.00
chris, i really thank you for putting this together...
