Alive
I am back again. Sorry mates. I was getting in touch with the cool things that can happen to one when you get a white cell collapse and the intestinal track gets some fine infection and all shuts down. Really quite interesting, although I would not advise personal experience.

I'm damned hard to kill. Have to regal you one day in person with my story of walking myself to the hospital with a ruptured appendix for a cash and carry emergency surgury in rural North Africa. I find it to be an amusing story, although everyone thought I was dead for about a week.

can't you just keep a little vial filled to the brim (do vials HAVE brims?) with white blood cells on you at all times?
glad to have you back.

Can't wait to hear it, though I hope we don't get to hear in the future a sequel about the undetected-as-yet bloodborne viruses (hepatitis, etc.) picked up from the poorly cared-for instruments.
Not to be too negative. Though with your 0 white blood cells, if you'd gotten something they'd have acted up by now, I imagine.
