Thanks Trey........my husband tried to lift my spirits later telling
me how extremely small amount that was....but, I just told him that I
knew that.......I just wanted it to stay "0" instead of one time &
then back up.  He then said, "it says right here, "This is consistent
with CML. You're just going to have to accept that you have this
disease and it is not going to totally go away!"  Of course,  I knew
all of this......but like I said, I have been sort of emotional lately
for some reason & was just a bit touchy.  Didn't take much to send me
to tears & with the day I had yesterday, receiving those results when
my hopes were soooooooo high after the last ones,  it just sent me to
the bottom pits quickly as the last straw.........Thankfully, I don't
get this way very often.......I'm in a much better place today. My
faith helps tremendously.

You know,  though, I think this was kind of good. Cause when my
husband sees that "negative" he gets it into his head..."See, you're
just fine.......nothing wrong, you're healthy as a horse!" He's like
all the people around you who know you and your disease....they see
you and think "wow, she looks so healthy. Can't be nothing wrong with
her."  They don't understand the days I've spent laying on the sofa
too tired to get up........or the achy muscles and joints.......the
nausea that knocks you for a loop.......the nights spent staring at
the ceiling because you can't go to sleep.......the times you lose all
train of thought and you search your brain for what you were just
talking about....the thought that you are losing your mind........the
muscle cramps......night sweats.....then getting chills on top of the
sweats....the headaches.......shall I go on,  because I can.  I think
seeing those results yesterday brought it all back to him that this is
what I have to live with daily for the rest of my life.

Thanks, too, Suzzy, for your kind words.  Yes....thinking positive
helps & I'm back there........like I said.....feeling sorry for myself
is not one of those things I do very often......but hits me once in a
blue moon & then it's gone.  I would rather look at the good
stuff.....the funny stuff in life.....I know that there are those who
are worse off than I.......more stuff to go through & deal with than
what I have.

So....thank you all who post here......I appreciate all of you more
than I could ever say.

Keep Looking Up,
Suzieq
