Yeah, I'm paying a price for winning, but living somehow makes it all worth while.

Cancer Shmancer!
Six rounds of adjuvant chemo may be knocking me around right now, but there ain't no cancer in me! A little radiation, chemotherapy and surgery, along with a lot of faith, fasting and prayers, sent it packing. We're just batting cleanup with this latest treatment. Any cancer cell thinking it's going to hang around in my body has another thing coming. I'm swallowing poison on a daily basis to take you out!

Fantastic to find you blogging again. Missed your upbeat comments on mine!
ReplyDeleteSorry to read about your daughter, hope the docs get to the bottom of her symptoms soon. You and Carla have enough on your plate.
No doctor's diagnosis of my aches and pains, just guesswork on my part. Varying suggestions have been: Energy being taken from the muscles; low Vit D3 levels; hepatitis cells in the bones??!!
I have a list of procedures to get through yet with no end in sight. Cancer blood test Feb 9th, biopsy Feb 25th, gastrosopy in March - and on, and on. T & I have decided it's time for me to bite the bullet and ask about getting on the transplant list - scary.
Nice to see you back Steve....:-)

Steve - I'm glad to hear things are moving forward. You are always missed here at school and hope to see your smiling face around here soon...
ReplyDeleteDude, just keep fighting and if you need someone to lean on, well lean on me.
ReplyDeleteHi Steve
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your lovely positive comments on my blog. They always help to lift the spirits. Yes T does help with a variety of restoration type projects, as a countryside volunteer and as a professional. Always a country boy at heart he grew up with very practical parents, from a self-sufficient WWII generation. In his work as an academic his special research interest is iron-framed buildings which in our part of the UK means mainly Industrial Revolution 18th and 19th C cotton mills. Now out of use for their original purpose they are turned into apartments or small business offices. Someone needs to advise on what can be kept and what needs to be re-built, and often that someone is T. But the countryside stuff gives him what he calls his 'green gym' - exercise (and companionship) outside instead of on a gym treadmill. Also he saw his father leave retiring from work too late to enjoy it before ill health kicked in, so cut back to part-time work in his 50s and does this volunteer work each week as 'early retirement' - lol!
I do hope you are coping with the chemo and that your kids continue with their treats and surprises. I am so so lucky to have escaped the poison!
First off, our daughter is doing great. Her symptoms have all but disappeared. Thank you all for your concern and well wishes for Abby.
ReplyDeleteFiona, I always love leaving comments on your posts. You are my only non-colon cancer cyber-buddy after all. And besides, who else puts A. A. Milne quotes in their blog?
Mark N., I'm looking forward to your CS presentation in April. Thanks for the ongoing support.
Carole, it's nice to be back. But then you already know I been haunting the blogs again for the last week or two. :-)
Mark-o, thanks for being right across the street when I need someone to lean on. We both know I've done that more than once.
