More Treatment

Well I have now finished the radiation part of my treatment. I also have decided that when I grow up I want to be a Radiation Oncologist, that way when my radiation oncologist gets cancer then I can turn that machine up on him. It wasn't all that bad during the treatment but about a week after that the area that was treated became super sore like a really bad sunburn. I also have had another round of chemo so right now I have no immune system. Outside of that my life is going great.

Lani is doing great. The kids are good as well. Sam the youngest turned six a couple of weeks ago so he will now say somthing like "Remember when I was five and we ....." If only I could remember all of the things that I did when I was five.

I had a friend of mine who was battling leukemia pass away a couple of weeks ago. It is really sad. It was so nice to have someone to call and talk to about this cancer and have them understand everything that you are going through. It was fun to share and learn about the different treatments that we have had to battle esentially the same diesease. It was great we would give each other hope. I will miss talking to him. Its funny how just a little bit of good news will make you feel like you are winning this fight. I often wonder what life would be like if we didn't have hope.

At my Dr. visit yesterday, he was happy to see that the tumors that were bright red on my skin are dull and fading away. He thinks that only a couple of more rounds of chemo and I should be good to go again, hopefully for around 100 years. There was also some sad news at the clinic yesterday, one of my regular nurses son was hit by a car last weekend. I guess he was just riding his bike when a car accidently hit him. He was in a coma for several hours but he is expected to make a full recovery. Those nurses are like family to me now. They treat me nice and put up with me.

Well take care until next time.
