    I think this thread title should remove the "I hope" and just be "I kicked the shit out of cancer because I'm a bad ass."
    I'm not quite that confident yet. I'll still need a PET scan in the spring to confirm.
    If I had known then what I know now...

    good lord....this new "super chemo" is no joke :shock: . the biggest side effect is the cold sensitivity, but I never REALLY experienced it....until today.

    It was 35 degrees this morning with probably a 40 mph wind (winds were 100 mph a little north of here and at least 7 semis tipped over on the interstate :shock: )....I took gracie to the park and immediately my face felt like it was being pierced by 100 needles and my hands (even with gloves) felt about the same. but, you know gracie....she needs her romp :lol:

    anyway, I don't know if today's thing was due to a) the wind chill or b) just the fact the chemo is accumulating in my system. right now, I'm on treatment #4 of 12. I'm getting there! :mrgreen:

    Some chemos do that...what a bitch it is. Accumulation is the worst part of chemo (bit it does help it to work) and I know you are thinking it is ages before it is done. I remember that feeling too well....but we are done and the two and a half years actually went by quite quickly, so I really hope the same happens for you.
    Take a day at a time, wrap up, drink beer, and stay strong xxxx

    the "big puppy" is, no doubt, always there for me :mrgreen:

    we had an out of town friend here last night...I felt like total shit but rallied the best I could. today, I feel a bit better....at least coffee is tasting kind of OK again.

    it's just kind of a bitch....but I would say there's no doubt the chemo is making my body pretty inhospitable for cancer cells. as they say in the chinese restaurant, "you go, NOW!!!" :lol:

    Not even the fries? Damn.

    Since I'm such a coffee slut, I'm glad to hear that at least coffee tastes sort of OK. I'm not sure I could face a future without coffee. :lol:

    Does anything taste good? :problem:

    one day at a time, NEVER look at the numbers and always believe that no matter what the weekly, monthly, or however much time passes for your next pull, test or treatment there will be an upswing.
    it is never the testing scores but how well you feel that matter

    finally feeling decent, after being DC'ed from chemo a week ago. I even ventured out and drank too much last night :lol:

    I'm going to enjoy the next few days and try not to think too much about the next chemo, this coming wednesday :cry:

    You deserved a night out!!! Good for you!
    The thing I like most about time is that it's not real. It's all in the head. Sure, it's a useful trick to use if you want to meet someone at a specific place in the universe and have tea or coffee- but that's all it is- a trick. There is no such thing as the past. It exists only in the memory. There is no such thing as the future. It exists only in our imagination. If our watches were truly accurate, the only thing they would ever say is "Now". That's what time it is. It's "Now". - Damien Echols
