Moved up to Protected Environment floor last night into Protective Isolation Room. My neutrophils dropped below 500, and I will be placed in complete isolation tomorrow for 21 days while my immune system is compromised. I met briefly with a Chaplain (Rabbi Daniel Aronson) before I moved yesterday and was very pleased with his inspirational words and prayers offered.
Gayle Macolly-Harris, my Eastman Chemical Client Manager from Anniston, AL came to visit me this morning, and we spent some quality time talking about family, support networks and friends. She successfully lifted my spirits, and I am very thankful to work for some top quality, caring clients.
Also talked to my wife, sons, brother and nephew today and received a very nice note from my former Lehigh University roommate Dave Cole.
Lorraine continues to be my rock and strength and is coming down to see me in the morning before I go into lockdown! I am truly blessed with a supportive family and friends and strong faith in my Savior Jesus Christ.
I will miss my first SAR meeting in quie awhile in Galveston tomorrow, but I know my fellow Compatriots will all be praying for me.
That’s it for now!
Prayers Up,
John L.
