Clarification: Andy spoke to our family physician today. She takes care of both of us and we like her very much. She had seen my white blood cell count and explained to Andy that the number was actually 1x10 to the 9th. Normal is 4x10 to the 9th. So we are talking billions here. Which I understand is, even for a person with poor math skills such as myself, a bit more than just 1. And so now we all understand.
