    Awesome!! Fantastic news.
    It really is good news but sounds like a hell of a battle.  My thoughts are with you; the feeding tube announcement disturbs me, but I guess it's part of the process.  Let your throat heal.  Keep rockin' woman!!

    I’m trying! I’ll admit, it’s getting tough. 

    Cirrhosis may prevent me from the feeding tube or I get at-home IV. This hospital, my med team, fucking stellar!

    I am very fortunate :)

    Do you miss the smokes? 
    With my situation, I don't miss them at all. Not one damn bit. 
    Did you go through any withdrawal symptoms? 
    Or do you have cravings? 
    Im just curious

    .Speedy. I think it was.withdrawals, but after the first few days, was probably in my head. Muscle memory. 

    I still have cravings but more along the lines of “it’d be so nice to have a smoke right now” but that always passes.

    i still can’t quite believe I quit those (literal, for me) cancer sticks :)

    ^ I had a friend who used to say: It'd be nice to see you quit while you're still alive... 17 years back my last cig. I had started to be concientious and pick up my butts like EV does in that Italy DVD prior to my last smoke.

    And when those old cues came, I'd say to self: wow! I'm not gonna have a smoke right now (excitedly) before the thought would drift away.

    Well done, Hedonist!

    Still in the hospital, chemo all done, three radiations left.

    This is tougher than my silly ass thought. Not giving up but too tired to keep stoking the fire for now. It’ll be alright. I will be.

    And thank you all. This means much to me, especially in a time where the questions of self and what’s crucial to that self are swirling.

    Congrats on being done with chemo!! You are almost there. I have never gone through this myself. However, I have had a few people in my life have to deal with it. I know it is not easy, and the cure can be just as brutal. But you are strong. You are almost at the light at the end of the tunnel. You got this!

    That light is right there, so very close. I can see it, fuck knows I feel it! My neck is like that of a burn victim. 

    Yet, as my beloved George wrote, “It’s not always gonna be this way.” Fuckin A, Georgie!
