Highs and Lows

Here is the ditty I posted on Facebook when I got my platelet good news 3 days ago.

Sung to the tune of 76 Trombones

209,000 platelets lead the big parade,

With 1.1 lymphocytes next on the team,

They were followed by rows that were filled by the finest neutrophils,

The cream of every healthy blood stream.

Guess you can tell my IVIG is working and my platelets are back to normal-Wahoo

I have talked before about not getting too high or too low with this vomit comet of a disease, but hey, when I am weightless. why not celebrate, but because I know there may be a crash in the future.

Is it possible to have the highs without the lows?

The Federal Reserve couldn't do it. They rob the future to pay for the present.

Buddha couldn't do it. He snapped off the top and bottom of our existence.

Sartre couldn't do it. L'enfer, c'est les autres.

G-d couldn't do it. A wrathful G-d makes you pay for your good times. A merciful G-d is more compassionate and is always there to lend a hand, but she doesn't promise a smooth trafficless freeway,but pretty much guarantees a bumpy county road filled with potholes.

I think I will meditate on this.
