Chemo #5, #6, and everything in between

Well … it is has been a long time since I have written anything. I apologize for that.

Alot has been going on lately….

Chemo #5 was wierd .. I came home that day all hyper and wound up. Definately never had that happen before .. I couldn’t stop eating either.

I paid for all the hyper-activity and eating the next morning … I don’t know how many times I got sick, but never mix Black Cherry Kool-Aid and Peanuts … Ewwwww …. smile

I ended up feeling so well that I went into work on my quarentine week for 2 days. I felt good, but ended up catching a cold and that almost put me the hospital a couple times due to a high fever, but luckily we avoided the hospital. smile

Chemo #6 went about the same as #5 … hyper when I got home ate like crazy .. got sick the following morning …

I have to say thanks to someone though. Nurse Cindy .. she gave my wife these Country Time Lemonade Lollypops and I have been using them to combat the rancid taste the last part of my chemo causes for my last 2 treatments. These things are the BOMB! I am wondering if this is why I come home not so wiped out because I can’t taste that nasty medicine. Anyway .. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! smile

My wife and I also celebrated our 4 year wedding anniversary. We spent the weekend in Lake George. We had a great time and watched the balloon festival they had there. It was nice to get away from everything.

For those of you that do not know. I have only been married to my wife (Carrie) for 4 years, but we have been together for almost 15 years now. I cannot imagine my life without her. She is my one true friend.

So I am on my good week now and get to return to work tomorrow! Woohoo! smile I miss work so much I cannot wait until I am back full time.

I only have 2 more treatments to go! I must say it is harder now than when I started though. I just absolutley DREAD going in. So much so that I usually get sick a couple times after they plug me in. frown
They offer medicine to settle my stomach, but I feel so much better just getting it out of my system. I got enough crap being pumped into me. smile

So hopefully I will keep this more up to date now …
