This is Pauline, Boone's wife. Every year on or near his birthday, he has his annual physical. His doctor told him that he had "Immature blood cells" and referred him to a hemotologist. To Boone's great surprise when he arrived for the appointment, the hemotologist was an oncologist. They drew blood and the Oncologist, Dr. K, wanted to know why I was not with him. Next visit he said, I better be there. A month later, we went to the appointment. Blood was drawn. Dr. K. said it could be a couple of things, and ordered a bone marrow biopsy. On the 3rd month, we heard the diagnosis of CMML.

I HAS A BEARD, KINDA

They tell me I can't use a razor and I don't use an electric one so this is what I look like now.  Glad to be getting some hair back but also glad that I hardly ever see myself in a mirror.  Hope none of you are too shocked.

On Boone, I thought you would be hard to look at after being through so much! No way! You may just keep this look even after you have all this hospital time behind you. I agree with you Kathi, that is one handsome guy.
