Hi
Just want to let everyone know that this week has been a breeze!! I am not all that sick and we are now into Wed night so that is usually my “get well” day. I wish I could stay at this dose for the rest of the treatment but I can't. I think I talked about the fact that we need to bump up the dosage to be at an effective level. I have gotten a bit of a break by switching doctors; I got an extra week at the lower dosage. Shhhhhh!!! Don’t say anything ok?? J
I am trying not to think about the increased dose and all that and instead I am trying to focus on just getting through this and coming out the other side. I know I can grind it out for 8 more sessions. I think this puts me around Feb 26th or maybe a little bit after if I have to skip a week somewhere. This happened last time, I had to skip a week because my white blood cells were pretty low and they just pushed it back a week.
I’m kind of bummed that this has to be going on over the holidays but Carol and I are planning a “Post Chemo Vacation” to make up for it. We haven’t made any decisions but I am thinking that going somewhere nice and warm in March or April wouldn’t be a bad thing.
Speaking of the holidays; my brother and his son are coming down for a few days so I am very much looking forward to that but I think our Holiday plans are pretty limited by the chemo so I doubt we will be going anywhere. That’s ok though, we will make up for it after.
There isn’t a whole heck of lot else to talk about except I do have once big complaint. How in the heck could you people vote for Carol or the dolphin over ME in that picture????!!?!? I looked fantastic (way better than the dolphin) so I think there is some funny business going on with the voting situation. Get real people!!! LOL
Take care everyone…of yourselves and of each other…
Peace and love to all
John
