Farewell to Grim

After four bags of blood, 4 powerful B12 shots and over a week to rest, I feel somewhat better. The short breath, pounding heart and most of the headaches are gone. My legs no longer feel as if they're going to fall off.

Aside from having to take B12 shots for the remainder of my life, I've been told that my muscle mass will more easily increase, and based on my diet my belly will most likely completely disappear - this NOT including our feasting on American food this coming vacation.

Dancing with Grim

I now have a better appreciation for those with chronic conditions or diseases. I recently found out last week that I had something known as pernicious anemia, which came within moments of killing me. My kidneys, liver - everything - was shutting down and my blood count was death level.

But, thanks to the amazing docs, I'm just about good to go now. Strange how one vitamin can hold your life in the balance.

More later . . .

Norway melted today . . .


Ok, I couldn't resist. It has been rather warm.
