    Thanks! Three weeks tomorrow :) I’m proud of my will to see this through. The first but necessary part of this odyssey.

    That’s a lot of green! I smoked Cigarillos, maybe four a day, so it wasn’t really cost-prohibitive, but still! It’s a savings.

    And also not a smell I typically encounter, as with cigarettes.

    Tomorrow morning brings my first radiation and chemo (five hours!). 

    I’m bringing my ear buds and imagination and the best energy I can muster. Also, I’m pretty sure I’ll finish Acid For the Children during all that chemo time. My sick book is really gonna 
    do its thing :lol:

    Best wishes and happy thoughts for you as you commence your six weeks of kicking cancers ass!

    Btw: Being grateful for your challenges was one of the best things I've ever read. Thank you.

    I could swear he's trying to talk to me

    Thank you all! I sit here, IV in arm, having received my pre-chemo meds and now the actual med. My nurse is fantastic, knows her shit, makes me feel not so overwhelmed.

    My docs are wonderful too, but always, it’s the nurses for me.

    Good to get that done. Five hours is a long time. Will the sessions always be that long? How are you feeling?
