    actually, it's been a pretty shitty weekend :cry:

    I went out with some friends for dinner on saturday and shocked my system with a big juicy hamburger. big juicy mistake. I've pretty much been in bed the past two days. my stomach was cramping like you wouldn't believe.

    however.....I have rallied a bit. drug my ass out of bed and am going to attempt a BBQ very shortly. no greasy burgers tonight....or beer :cry::mrgreen:

    today is a big day....

    one week ago, my chemo doc gave me a week break. said I'd end up in the ER if he didn't. last Th-Sat, I was in the toilet :cry: . I rebounded pretty nicely this week. Now, I'm back on the chemo and have to hope I don't sink back into the depths because we've got Ed in LA one week from tomorrow. please send your thought, vibes, prayers, whatever that I'm in LA a week from tomorrow. I'll be doing everything I can do this week to not have a repeat of last week!

    btw - I had a dream last night...I was second row, dead center for Ed....and slept thru the whole show :wtf:
    Hoping the chemo isn't as shitty as last time and that you have a fantastic time seeing Ed...try to stay awake :lol: And I REALLY hope you get front row dead center...you bloody well deserve it!!! xxx

    T-minus whatever to the Ed show.

    I'm still trying to figure how to "peak" for the show. yesterday afternoon, I felt really good. I had just gotten radiation after 3 days off for the holiday weekend and was joking that maybe I needed the radiation to feel good :shock: . I felt so good, I wanted a pizza. again, big mistake. I spent all last night with a cramping stomach. now, I'm finally feeling decent again. I get DC'ed from my chemo tomorrow and then have about a day until Ed's show. I guess the main thing I've learned is to stick with bland food. as in, jello bland :roll:

    so, I'll be there. I just need to keep my stomach in check. when it cramps, it ain't pretty and there's no quick fix. so, if I see any of you all the show, It won't be with beer in hand. I swear, I haven't not drunk this much beer in 35 summers!

    You didn't miss much. The SLC airport isn't anything special... excluding the fact that the airport scene in Dumb & Dumber was shot there...

    Just checking in with ya...hang in there and stay strong!

    Please have fun at the Eddie show...it's your time to 'get away' and concentrate on feeling great...living in the moment, being one with the crowd and Eddie. :D
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Sammy takes a med for the stomach and nausea which often helps. Hydrooxyzane Hydrochloride Syrup. Prescription strength can help...see if your doctor will let you try it. I have been trying to think of ways to help you feel up to the show xxx

    OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!
    Have lots of fun at the show! I am envying you!

    (BTW I wish I could say that I feel good today. The only reason that's pertinent to this thread is I'm having my first ever colonoscopy tomorrow morning. Not really enjoying the prep for it. :|)
    the procedure is a breeze....the prep sucks...bad!

    Rob, awesome that you're feeling better!!! looks like it might be just in time, eh?? :D

    What is involved with the prep?...if you can share it here.

    It's important and I will certainly get one, but I will be honest, the idea of a colonoscopy and/or prostate exam freaks me out. :?
