Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight/The End

Side two of the Abbey Road album ends with a medley of songs, the first two compositions written by Paul McCartney as one song, then The End a stand alone- all were credited to Lennon/McCartney like most Beatles songs after the really early days. Abbey Road was actually the last album recorded by the Beatles, (but Let It Be was the last album released.)
I couldn't think of a better example to go with my official end to the Hyper C-Vad Chemo sessions and my state of mind from last night. My last Cytarabine infusion was done at 9:05 PM and we were out the door by 9:15 PM! I made it home to a greeting from Sadie at around 10:00PM. Straight to bed and golden slumbers were awaiting me immediately. No interruptions for blood tests, vital signs, etc. Friday was a good day all around, I received my none marrow biopsy results which show 1.6% blast cells (bad ones) in my marrow, well below the 5% allowable maximum. Science aside, this means I can continue to a bone marrow transplant ASAP. The prayers, good luck and all of the support I have received has given me two donors, the first is a 100% typed 40 year old woman living somewhere in the good ole' USA. The other back up donor is a 90% donor. Scheduling and some final insurance details await us now.Thanks to everyone who has helped in one way or another!

This tasty video (09-15-97) comes from a concert in the Royal Albert Hall for a relief effort for a volcanic eruption of the Caribbean territory/island of Montserrat. You get to see Sir Paul start it off, Eric Clapton, Phil Collins, Mark Knopfler and many more stars perform as a great team, just like Team "I got a fever." Live Happy- Greg
