hi folks,
well i never thought the new week would come, haven't been on here or should i say haven't been on any where for 2 days, not even this planet.
seems that me and chemo don't get on haha, thats a joke not slept for 2 nights but got the concentration span of a goldfish, did i tell yu not slept for 2 (JOKE). been walking if thats what you call it , personally i think i qualify for a part in the new horror movie looked like a zombie all be it a good looking one,but walking around with a bucket for 2 days, wanting to sit still, felt sick, stood up felt sick went to bed had to get up, yer felt sick, easy to see where this is going.
thankfully bev's been fantastic, cooking cleaning taking the dogs out really kept me busy. ONLY JOKING she's never left my side and an i thankfull. At one point i even thought that i can't go on with this, sitting at 2.30 in the morning in the dark both my dogs curled up around me, i worked it out i had 164 days of this. Now i pride myself as a decent man, love my family worked hard played hard was brought up by my grandfather, a proper geordie miner with high standards ( strange but true bless him) to respect those that earned it or deserved it but never walk away from a fight and always face your fears.20yrs ago he passed away from this awfull disease (stomach n liver cancer). and i never saw him complain once.but sitting at 2.30 in the morning i admit it beat me, and i thought if i stop the chemo can it be worse........
Well thankfully its monday, the suns out and for some strange reason i feel 100% better. Slept right through had my tablets without retching, life's not to bad. question- do you think its the end results of the intrvenes part of the chemo cos i can get through this if its only gonna last a couple of days.
So lyn i hope nielson has a better time of it, and hopefully the effects i have had are only off the drip and if he reacts the same contact the hospital.
as always stay happy positive and love thse around you joe xx
