Tuesday Chemo

The treatment went well today. They did change one of my medications to Taxotere. It is suppose to have less of the peripheral neuopathy but more of the nausea; since I haven't been nauseous we felt like it was a pretty good gamble. He really felt we had to get the foot thing under control as he said it can become chronic if we don't get it stopped and that would be awful. I can't imagine. Anyway it is getting better every day so we will see what happens this weekend . He said call if it starts to get any worse. So far so good. I did find out Doc is going to add a treatment at the end so that extends chemo till the 7th of April which will push radiation until at least the end of May/first week of June. So the saga continues. But I am feeling well and thankful that I have such a good doctor that really worries and tries to do everything he can to see I am getting well with the least drama possible. So lets all say a prayer for Dr Haslam and his posse. They are the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tony came over after I got home and ate dinner with us. We had bbq ribs and scalloped potatoes with spinach salad. It was yummy, actually tasted good to me for a change. I most had the salad with one bite of potatoes and a few ribs. I am getting so fat from the steroids. They tell me it is mostly water weight and I can see that some in my ankles but I think a lot is good old fashioned sit on you butt for 6 months fat. This new medication is suppose to make it worse so here goes. Cliff said I am just plump or big boned, but I told him I think I have the plumpest ass bone I have seen in awhile. I shouldn't complain, I bought a size 8 pants today but they have stretch and are tight as Dick's hat band and it busted.

Anyway, then we watched 2012 and it was really good . We decided that the crazy Woody Harrleson character in the start of the movie was based on my ex-husband Jimmy Basora. We really laughed, we will REALLY laugh when we find out he was right..... hehehehehehehe. Anyway I ran Tony home and now we are just chilling out. Tonight is my night of no sleep; the night they turn me into a vampire who roams the house all night looking for something I can clean without waking up Cliff. Oh well, I do get to watch a good movie once in awhile around 3 am so all is not lost.
