You wicket, wicket people:-)

Well, I've been back home after my second round of chemo (the 5 FU reduced from 5 to 3 days)for about 5 days now. Starting to feel a little better. Tumor pain gone. Still dry mouth and down to 160 lbs. Did 3 days in a row of IVs after they released me.

Looks like I'm going to get a total of 4 rounds. So, the third round will likely be right after Christmas.

They likely won't do a scan until possibly after round 4 around February. Notice all the "likely"s!

I'm torn between wanting to ignore this whole thing (believing that chemo recovery is the end-all) and attempting to prepare myself for the unknown likely-hoods of Brachytheropy and/or surgery.

Radiation Doctor spoke with Brachytheropy Doctor who said he would look at my records 3 days ago.
Was supposed to hear back and getting anxious.
I really want to ignore all this and go sailing and drive my loudly modified RX-7 convertable. Mixed emotions of wanting to enjoy eating and preparing myself for not.

My two sons and my daughter will arrive on the 18th.
