It was less than a wonderful day yesterday, but my day was immediately made better when my sunshine walked into my room this morning. My next treatment is supposed to be Tuesday, but they may stall it another day to see if they can re-mix the meds thy are giving me to stop this reaction nonsense.... Sign in to see full entry.

Home For Now
I am home... for now, anyway. Other than a reaction every time they give me a treatment, I'm doing well. As I posted a few days back, I had surgery to remove a stomach cancer, and now I am being treated with chemo. Under the line, 'tons of fun,' this ain't it. It will take me at least another week...

Hi. V stayed in the hospital for overnight today because he still had another minor reaction this morning. It was not as bad as the one before. I spent all day there today and I just got home. I'm tired and frustrated a little too. He told them about his thyroid cancer and surgery but they seemed... Sign in to see full entry.

I got up long enough to take a shower, flip my computer on to check the 90-some emails I got, and post a few things here. I am still reeling a little, but I have tomorrow off. I am extremely grateful for my wife and everything she has done for me today. I've gotta Grade A headache and I am dizzy.... Sign in to see full entry.
hi, this is Lisa posting for my husband. V had a small reaction to the chemo that made it hard for him t breathe for a while but they caught it when he began to complain of breathing issues. He had his thyroud out in I think he said it was in 2011. The treatment had something in it that caused a... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm going to be going in for chemo at 9AM in the morning, so I'm posting all of my stuff tonight. Other than some heavy rain earlier and some more that should be rolling in here soon, it was a nice day. I had a man stop by here my brother got to know who was a building contractor, but he was injured... Sign in to see full entry.
After finally getting back as close to normal as I will ever be, I start chemo tomorrow. I'm scheduled for twice a week as of this morning. Tuesday and Thursday, with blood work on Fridays, to check for various cancer markers. They are telling me this will not be a vigorous treatment, but more of a... Sign in to see full entry.

It's almost 10:40 at night, and I think I am going to take it easy tomorrow. It's supposed to be closing in on 96 tomorrow and the next day. I'm getting so the sun-fueled temperatures don't bother me much anymore. I don't really have a lot to say but I do have a wife chomping at the bit to get in... Sign in to see full entry.
I'm doing better today. I am still not 100% and I think 'better' is still a month or two down the trail, but I keep walking down the path. We'll get there. The starter on the car went out yesterday, so I have two men here changing it. Two years ago, I replaced that starter for $89 for the part and... Sign in to see full entry.

It's almost 2 AM and I can't sleep. Nothing really wrong, just can't sleep. I ordered over $1100 worth of stuff we will need from Amazon, Lowes, and a local hardware store that allows me to 'shop online.' I bought a new 3.2 cubic feet mini-fridge for our bedroom to keep our Coke, tea, and other... Sign in to see full entry.
