The "Sandman" is doing overtime.

I've been sleeping since last Thursday.  I wake up long enough to pee, sometimes I can grab a bite to eat, and then down I go.  My most recent chemo treatment, which came the day before that, has been a little harder on me than most. 

According to my Doctor the chemo has successfully lowered my PSA count to a point where he is considering beginning a new form of treatment which will have less side effects.  Unfortunately it has also lowered the platelets in my blood, which apparently is the cause of my unwanted slumber.  Due to this uncontrollable need for sleep I have been unable to conduct my customary amount of research to determine how this actually works so I'm kind of flying blind right now with regards to how I'm feeling and what I might do to help rectify the situation.

I'm told that a blood transfusion is required to get my counts back up and allegedly make me feel better, so, that is where I'm going today.

I hope it works so the "sandman" can take some time off and I can stay awake for more than 45 minutes at a time.

Ah, here he is now.  Time for another nap.
