Cancer Update and some GOOD NEWS!!!
I know it's been 5 days since I've been able to post something. The chemo-therapy has beat me down pretty bad this week but, this is my Friday off and I hope to be posting more. Woody has tried to help but he is very busy with his CPA practice as well so I'm hoping that you lovely people will bear with me. Sometimes the side effects from the chemo are far more tiring than others.
Now, for the GOOD NEWS!!! I had a CT scan of the chest and abdomen on the 6th of May and the results are just too good not to share:
No evidence of Tumors and the recommendation is for a re-exam in 6 months (but I'll get one in 3 months anyway)... PLUS... I'm halfway through chemo now. YIPPIE KI YAY!!!
More blogging in the very near future... I promise!
Wonderfu! We'll keep those prayers coming George.

I DO like good news. The good news here is especially delightful. Keep sluggin' old sod and we'll keep up our comms w/ Man Upstairs.
There are rumors that when you let your hair grow back, that you're planning on dyeing it green or orange. Say it isn't so.

GM,
Take care of yourself first. I myself have had to cut back a bit on blogging, out of physical and work concerns.

Great news. Very happy to hear it. Someone very close to me went through chemo and I have an IDEA what you're going through- though I certainly don't truly understand. Never walked in those shoes.
Keep fighting and knock the shit out of it. I'll share a great quote from Hippocrates:
"I would rather know the nature of the patient than the nature of the disease."
It sounds like you've got a helluva attitude. Keep it up.

Just made a small donation GM. From email address kog@kogmarketing.com
I know the devastating effects cancer can have on someone's pocketbook. I know it's not much, but it should be enough to get you some anti-nausea pills or something.
