Welcome 2012!
December 31, 2011Books and Media
December 30, 2011Over the past few weeks I’ve reread the 1st 4 books in the “Safehold” series by Weber in preparation for the new 5th book. A fun read. I love the series. However, I am a Weber addict.
I thoroughly enjoyed Scalzi’s reinterpretation of “Little Fuzzy.” He did a good job.
On the media side, I Had a good time watching the 2nd Sherlock Holmes film. Lots of fun.
Elections

Unfortunately, she is not attempting to make a pitch for anyone with an IQ equal to or higher than her age.

December 23, 2011You know, you are taking a lot of meds, when the pharmacist at Walgreen’s greets you by name!
Chemo # 4 – Update.
December 12, 2011The time between Chemo #3 and Chemo #4 was almost too interesting. During one stretch I was seeing a doctor 6 business days in a row plus an ER visit on Saturday, the 3rd.
I had my plumbing checked out on the 1st and the stents replaced. Some problems with my plumbing caused some hassles. I have now learned how remove a catheter and even do a basic irrigation. The things one learns. If interested, let me know and I’ll walk you thru it.
Chemo #4 was on the 5th followed by the shot to boost my White Cell Count.
I also saw the cardiologist, who noted, I do have a heart. A good thing. I haven’t heard back about the echocardiogram yet.
I’ve also been effected by the chemo more this round than in the past. A little bit queasy, but no throwing up.
I see the oncologist on the 21st with Chemo #5 [out of 300] on the 27th.
Lets We Forget!
