I am writing this a bit later then i usually do, but i am somewhat tired, I could not sleep well on Friday night and it seems to have taken its tole on me today, but i am here and that's what counts now.
Friday the 21st was my second trip into chemo land, not sure how that is working for me, all the signs they say i should be getting are not showing up yet, but who knows, i have a weird metabolism may not show up till after the last treatment.
The good news Monday will be day 20, half way point, so that's good news.
The other good news in relation to Radiation is that i am showing all the side effects that can be shown, so i am experiencing it all now, only thing left is the intensity. It may get worse as in relation to pain, the sores in the mouth stuff like that but i should not get anything new, i asked them whats left? limbs falling off?
either way i am approaching the midway point and i am still standing, i have lost 40 pounds, i look like hell to most people, but i meet one man during treatments who is just a head of me with the same thing, i look better then he does, at least i do not have a feeding tube in.
now if i could get this thing with my mouth and sores under control i would be quite happy, well i am not sure happy is the word, but i would be, well i guess happier is the word.
lighter side is "the bug" has discovered she likes yogurt, i mean she really likes it, i have to fight her for it when i sit down, she almost had her head stuck container once, well 6 times or so, but she really likes it, she is not too good with jello though.
for those who do not know, "the bug" is Leela, she is my new kitten i picked up before i was sick, she has been quite a bit of fun, she keeps me entertained, i should see if i can catch her "boxing" Sasha (my dog) poor Sasha just puts up with it, her dignity can be restore with a chicken snack.
well i am off, take care, thanks for all the good wishes i been receiving lately.
