The magic potion is meandering through my veins - two vials worth of magic potion so far. Its destination - my bone marrow - the breeding ground of stem cells. Once it reaches there in Merlinesque style it would perform incantations, incantations that would mesmerize the stem cells. They would throng in multitude. And while they are still in the spell of the sorcerer they would realize that they are in the midst of their replicas - everywhere that their eyes could stretch. The incantations would continue ceaselessly for next three days. Eventually, the sorcerer would do a disappearing act but the replicas would thrive.
On fifth day the dwellers of bone marrow will meekly surrender to a strong suction force . The old dwellers and the new dwellers alike will make an uncontrolled march through the vein. Before they can realize what's happening they would be hurled from a slit in the vein into a reservoir- an inorganic bag. Before they gasp and die they would be frozen under -90 C. They will be in trance for some time. Sixth day will see this exodus recur.
They will be homeward bound, soon, but they have to be patient. Another magician now dwells at their home. His agenda is not the same as previous one.
I am feeling like Don Quixote today and I refuse to accept the reality that all that was done today was 2 vials of Neupogen was injected to induce my stem cell growth. Believe it or not there is a theater inside my body and every moment is like an act from a play.

Why only the veins ... There is drama everywhere. As someone said, all our life is but a stage. And in the words from Anand "hum sab rang manch ki katputliya hai" (We all are mere puppets in this stage called life!). :)

We fully agree with the comments of Devangi and Sumanth what magic the two vials are going to do. The magic has induced in you the feeling of Don Quixote and hope it will make you strong to accept the reality.
ReplyDeleteWish you all the best.
