no tears

[tohma2004]

Ha! I didn't cry. I may have crushed my father's fingers, but I didn't cry. I can call that a small victory on my part. I got a shot in the arm and no tears were shed.

Okay..so it took psyching myself up for it the entire night before and morning of..but damnit it is progress.

So yeah, that was my day. A shot in the arm to raise my white blood cell count. It was supposed to make my bones hurt..but it hasn't yet and I'm hoping that it doesn't because having my entire body hurt from my ribs to my legs..really doesn't sound like much fun. So I'm hoping I have once again avoided a nasty side effect.

Tomorrow I am going to try and ride..that is if I don't hurt from head to toe.

Go you, I know how much fear needles can cause, I can't stand them myself much. Good luck and hopefully you'll have the strength to ride, I know how important that is to you. :D

I'm crossing my fingers for you! When my friend Jim had cancer, he had this shot and was one of the unlucky ones who ended up with bone pain. :( It really sucks, but it's surviveable. I'm hoping you don't have to deal with it!

Kudos to you for toughing it out on the shot. minerva710 is also scared of needles, so I've seen how hard that is, and as cheesy as it's gonna sound I'm proud of you! <3
