Sorry I have been missing...

Good news, thats what we want to hear. You have 10,000 close friends Dale. I am very proud to be one of them.:rock: :rock: :rock: :rock:
 
Well, it has been a tuff week since my last treatment. I started feeling better on Saturday.

So now the mental process of prepping for my next treatment begins. I just have to keep focused on the fact that 2 are down and 10 to go, and on Wednesday I can say 3 down with 9 to go :)

Going to try the ginger capsules this time?

If so, start taking them 5 days before the next treatment.;)

Already started. Thanks for the tip.
 
Well, I did all I can do today. I went to work, then I went to the gym. I did not have much in the way of effort, but I went. Physically, I am spent. Emotionally, I feel better for having gone.

I did it, I fought back today. Today I was a winner. Now it is nap time.

Way to go, bro!

Nest treatment is in a few hours. I am a bundle of nerves, but I am ready.
 
hang in there bro. my mom went through it so i can relate so to speak. we are praying for you:rock:
 
Just read the entire thread. I've been there, man. 1 Port, 1 bone marrow biopsy, 1 surgical mass biopsy, 6 months, 8 chemos and 25 rads. You have much better odds than I did and I'm still here. You also have the same bone-headed, bring-it attitude I had about this. "I did it. I fought back today. Today I was a winner." You are going to be fine. This is a fixable condition. This is the attitude one must have, and you seem to have it. I too had a wonderful supportive spousal-unit and family. I continued with my daily run and went to work after treatments in order to maintain a level of normalcy and raise a middle finger to this disease. And you're not alone in having those questions about what to do with this gift of a second chance. Sunny days are much more beautiful, grass is much greener, smiles are sweeter. Little things don't matter. One of the things I do now is volunteer for the American Cancer Society. I try to give back a little now.

Late in my treatments, I found that Pepcid was a wonder drug for the nausea. Neulasta is tha bomb and I had the same pain with it. Better than the alternative. For some reason, it's hard to see the keyboard. And my nose is running. Stupid allergies...

Peace be with you...

The words of encouragement are still appreciated. I may not always reply to these threads, but even on bad days I do read them. Thank You to all.

The Dr. encouraged me to get out and do more exercise. He wants me to get out and do it even on the sick days now. I am to take it easy on sick days, but I am to try. On the good days, i am granted free reign to put the hammer down. So more bike time is coming back. We will see what I can do.
