From the horse's mouth II

Feb 04, 2006 20:16

Hello all,
Thank you so much for all your continued love and support. So far I'm doing ok. To be honest my 3 days of aggressive chemo really knock me off my feet - the fatigue is really tough - and the loss of appetite is no fun either. Yet after one or two days post chemo I'm usually doing ok and eating more or less normally.
Froggy has been and is a rock - attending to my every need and sitting with me when I pray to the porcelain throne. Having my family around me has also helped as sometimes doing the most simple of tasks is truly difficult.
I am so very lucky to have so many friends around the world all wishing for my recovery. I've loved the cards I've received, especially the heal command. The special items that have been sent by so many of you have really touched me and I smile when I think of hopping back on the immy boards.
I will have my first scans on 27 February which should indicate to the doctors which treatment to pursue: liver surgery, more chemo or trying Avastin. Until then I have my fourth chemo, bloodwork and EPO injections to look forward too.
Morale is still quite good although as with anything, some days are harder than others. It has been particularly cold and grey here in Paris - a good dose of vitamin D would do wonders.
I miss you all in chat and the boards but you can count on my return.
Lots of love and many thanks to you all,
Boeluen

immy, blood test, friends, chemo
