I get stem cells twice a week by lumbar puncture and on Sundays I get a day off but I usually spend it in the hospital because if you get sick they won’t give you the stem cells :-s

Thanks for the lovely photos of view from your room. I was surprised to see all those buildings out there. It seems you are in the big city. I am happy that you’ve seen snow for that first time. I always loved to see snow falling endlessly from the sky. It’s kind of healing by watching it except it’s very cold…….. You seemed to have very busy schedule everyday. I am keep sending all my healing power now and then. Have a great time there and eat most of China(I mean, enjoy eating real Chinese…. I mean food, not people)!! All the best. I hope my English is understandable. Cheers, cobber.
