So I finished part of my chemo as of yesterday. Aside from having a bag of drugs drip into my system 24/7, for the first 3 days I've had to have a red chemo drug (which is supposed to respond well to my other chemo meds) pushed through my system. So, 4 more days of chemo and then the real challenge begins. That's when I really need to start fighting.
I've been reading the Lance Armstrong book. It's been really inspirational. Almost as inspirational as my wife. She just left for a few hours. I said it was for me. But to be honest, I really think I needed it more for her. She has not left my side in 4 days. I can't believe I'm putting her through this roller coaster. I guess the saving grace is that if we can make it through this, we can make it through anything.
I also really want to thank you all. Everyone out there who is either reading this blog, has called me, texted me, wrote me, thought about me, visited me, drove out to see me, is flying in to see me or even just heard what I' going through. Also, all the doctors and the nursing staff here at the hospital. You are the real hero's. I can't stop saying how humbling an experience this is. Some people will say that this is all in Gods hands now. I disagree. It's in mine. And it's in yours. Keep the support going. I really appreciate it and if I don't respond to you, please know that you are all in my thoughts.
