Stem cell Drama

So I'm still waiting for my next stem cell test. Which should be around 20st of July. Am really hoping it would be good news and I can get this over with.

What has been happening:
Had my brothers tested to see if they can be donors for me and unfortunately it's a no. Corne was a close match tho but not perfect so they had a look on the donors register and it appears there are like 88 possible matches world wide for me and 57 locally :) Which seems good to me, I'm not sure how possible thats "possibly" is but 88 isn't a bad number me thinks !! At least it was some good news.

So tick tock. 3 more weeks to go before I know. (lol seems sitting at home is bringing out the poet in me.)

Lawyers

Lawyers should never ask a grandma a question if they aren't prepared
for the answer.

In a trial, a Southern small-town prosecuting attorney called his first
witness, a grandmotherly, elderly woman to the stand.

He approached her and asked, "Mrs. Jones, do you know me?" She
responded, "Why, yes, I do know you, Mr. Williams. I've known you since
you were a young boy, and frankly, you've been a big disappointment to
me.
You lie, you cheat on your wife, and you manipulate people and talk
about them
behind their backs. You think you're a big shot when you haven't the
brains to
realize you never will amount to anything more than a two-bit paper
pusher.
Yes, I know you."

The lawyer was stunned! Not knowing what else to do, he pointed across
the room and asked, "Mrs. Jones, do you know the defense attorney?"
She again replied, "Why, yes, I do. I've known Mr. Bradley since he was
a youngster, too. He' lazy, bigoted, and he has a drinking problem. He
can't build a normal relationship with anyone and his law practice is
one of the worst in the entire state, not to mention he cheated on his
wife with three different women. One of them was your wife.
Yes, I know him."
The defense attorney almost died.

The judge asked both counselors to approach the bench and in a very
quiet voice said,
"If either of you idiots asks her if she knows me,
I'll send you both to the electric chair."

Tale of an Irish Sausage. (Little Dirty)

Shamus and Murphy fancied a pint or two but didn't have a lot of money between them, they could only raise the staggering sum of one Euro.

Murphy said "Hang on, I have an idea."

He went next door to the butcher's shop and came out with one large sausage.

Shamus said "Are you crazy? Now we don't have any money left at all!" Murphy replied, "Don't worry - just follow me."

He went into the pub where he immediately ordered two pints of Guinness and two glasses of Jamieson Whisky. Shamus said "Now you've lost it. Do you know how much trouble we will be in? We haven't got any money!!"

Murphy replied, with a smile. "Don't worry, I have a plan, Cheers!"

They downed their Drinks. Murphy said, "OK, I'll stick the sausage through my zipper and you go on your knees and put it in your mouth."

The barman noticed them, went berserk, and threw them out. They continued this, pub after pub, getting more and more drunk, all for free.

At the tenth pub Shamus said "Murphy - I don't think I can do any more of this. I'm drunk and me knees are killin' me!"

Murphy said, "How do you think I feel? I lost the sausage in the third pub."

It seems I have a 82% chance of staying in remission based on the clear pet scan.
