    Looks like the roller-coaster continues
    it is a damn roller coaster :x ....got DC'ed from chemo on friday and unwisely drank a bunch of beers wile watching PJ20 that night....felt like crap the next morning. I took it pretty easy the rest of the weekend but still don't feel great today. not terrible; just not good.

    I need to figure out how long the massive 46 hour dose of chemo will be affecting me. luckily, I don't get any more until a week from wednesday :mrgreen:

    Your rant below is so needed and something you will be doing in the future too. The 'good' news is there IS a future for you to rant over....shitty (sorry) consolation, I know! Sam just finished treatment after two full years and I'm terrified...Will it all come back now the chemo is gone? You have a new normal ahead of you and, like Sam's it SUCKS. And knowing others are worse off is not a help at all! Lean on us, rant away at us, we are here for you Rob. xxx

    I may go see Brown versus Penn this afternoon. I know, Ivy league but I can walk to the stadium and the tickets are free. But its freakin' cold out! So, we'll see.
    my dad actually went to Penn and told they used to chant "what's the color of horseshit? brown, brown, brown!" :lol: close your eyes and picture a late 1940s football crowd.... :D

    So your Utes won, I think, and Brown did win. 6 to 0. Sorry, but I closed my eyes and imagined a 1940's football crowd with the men wearing fedoras and cigarette smoke permeating the air. It was too damn cold, wet and windy to sit in cement bleachers. Particularly for a 6 to 0 score! And I love the old school chant, that's the spirit!

    Positive Chi to you for the next few days and don't forget to spoil your dog. He/she deserves it!

    Be well!

    Peace.

    Damn, that is a great lookin' doggie and ahem, Rob, she looks wicked spoiled! But I'll bet deservedly so! And the football game, in my imagination, the women were wearing fox stoles around there collars while the men sipped from silver flasks. Can't you just picture it?

    I hope you made out okay today and will feel alright tomorrow as well. Hang in there buddy, that dog needs some more spoiling!

    Positive Chi to you and yours Rob. Be well.

    gracie is pretty well known over in ~:~:~: The Doggie Thread!! :~:~:~ She was raised in that thread. it's much like this thread....happy and sad; very supportive. gracie is my inspiration...she got CANCER when she was 18 months old....did the chemo and everything. Now, she's three and a half (going on 8 months :roll: ) and CURED :mrgreen:

    I not only can picture it, I have my Dad's old silver flask which probably did hold booze thru some Penn games. It now holds booze at Utah games. Talk about full circle :mrgreen: . The flask had a cork gasket that was leaking just a little....I went to home depot to find an "O" ring in plumbing....a guy comes up to help...I worry he's Mormon but pull the flask out anyway...it cracked him right the fuck up :lol:

    pretty good but.....I went out to the truck to take gracie to the park.....touched the cold ass steering wheel and....BOOM!....tingle, tingle, tingle in my hands. It was like they were asleep :shock: . Didn't go away until I got home and put my hands in warm water.

    they warned me this would happen. chemo ain't no joke. I would suggest you all try to avoid it at all costs. ;)

    Hi from a cold and grey England.

    Don't know if I've said it before Rob, but reflexology has had positive effects with regards to the side effects of chemo. It's worth a thought.
