Still Cold...


It's still cold.  Tonight may be the last night of the season  I have to leave the taps dripping & heaters on overnight.  After tonight, the lows should stay in the 40's.  Yay!

There's another reported "Cured" HIV patient in Britain.  It happened the same way as the 1st, a transplant.   I'm not going to spend much time on this.  I don't see this as a "cure" but as a very fortunate fluke for those 2 patients.  I'm happy for them,.  But, if this was easily, consistently repeatable, we'd already see it in major hospitals.  The 1st "cured" patient was 12 years ago.    It's great for these patients, it may open doors in research, but for now, it's not a cure. 

Tomorrow will be 3 weeks out from my stroke-bleed thing.  It's weird to know that, especially after Luke Perry died.  But his stroke was a different kind & far more extensive.   I need to call about my MRI appointment soon.   I have no idea the date yet.  My spring will consist of appointments & conversations with nurses, primary care givers, neurologists, HIV specialist, imaging professionals, dental staff & optometrists.  Yay me.  That was sort of sarcasm, but it could be worse. There could be no conversations at all.

Take care.

Cya...
