Back From the Chemo Tour

Well I went to Chemo Monday through Wednesday. It was the usual. Working from my bed as the nurses got in the way taking my blood pressure and giving me needles. My roommate was interesting this time around. I walked in and asked ..Where's your cancer? She replied she didn't have cancer ..she was in for tests. Her scans turned out fine and she was still in pain. I think she was faking..the worst thing she had was heart burn!!!! the meals weren't that good to hang around!! My mom and dad couldn't do enough for her when they visited...please just leave her alone...Had to get a stent put in on Wednesday afternoon which meant being put to sleep. They said no eating and drinking after dinner on Tuesday. So I woke up Wednesday morning and they wouldn't even give me an ice chip...Nazis...I begged..they gave me two ice chips. (big deal) After the procedure they gave me water and said take it easy....Take it easy!!!!!! I'm starved...when I got back to the room the Nazis were going to give me soup!!! I sent my dad down to the cafeteria and woofed down a turkey sandwich...Let's get out of here!!!.When I came home Wednesday night was fine but Thursday it hit me....I called Patti and she told me to suck it up...My mother was giving me a list of foods that she thought would make me feel better...as she ran down the hundred items she would provide for me..it made me sicker...a plain omelet was also suggested....

This cancer thing is so draining..sometimes I choose to ignore and go about my life. I even ordered a grilled chicken, cheese, and roasted pepper pannini at lunch on Thursday.....Reality kicked in...roasted peppers are not the way to go...Well this cancer got me the best gift ever. A Kenny Stabler signed jersey. It's beautiful...after I received that the Nazis and roasted peppers were a faded memory..
