This time anyway. Yesterday went well overall. Had a slight bit of nausea but a bit of ginger ale helped alleviate it (thanks for the suggestion Min). Worked all day then came home and rested. Getting a little bored actually. I've been eating and my weight has started to come back up already and I'm feeling good this morning after a nice sleep.
Dave & Jerry, some good friends of mine from Maplewood/South Orange (M/SO), are coming out on thursday night for a visit. There is an Italian restaurant/bar where we all used to hang out quite a bit (they still do), the owners of the bar have been very supportive since they heard the news and will be supplying food for them to bring to me. A lot of good people in this world.
Got to head to work,

Enjoy the eggplant :-D
Glad to hear you are doing well, so far. At least you have next week off from treatments. Will call you later while I'm stuck in the airport waiting to go home tonight. - GOC

Sat.

I am relieved to hear that everything is going well and that luck is on your side.
And of course some really good Italian food can only help ...

DrD-glad to hear that you are tolerating your chemo sessions without too many side effects. Medical science has sure come a long way since my mom went through it. I recently had two CAT scans due to problems similar to yours. The good news is there was no evidence of any masses. The bad news is just what is causing my problems. I had no side effects from the scans except from a little nausea as I was getting off the table. As far as going through the sessions alone-there are some things one feels better about going through alone. If I am going to be sick I don't need someone hovering over me. But you are really not alone. You have a tremendous support system. People do not have to be physically with you to be with you. Keep up the good work and attitude. Love, Mrs S(MA)
Great seeing you last night and glad to hear things are improving a bit. I'll be sure to pass your thanks along to B's for the pasta. If you're up to it next Sat, definitely come into town for dinner.
