(no subject)
Firstly I'd like to say thank you for all the kind words that everyone left on my last entry. I realize that my life has had an impact on those around me. I just feel that I'm being cheated of the opportunity to have as much of an impact as I would like. In a way, the worst part of this is not that I may die, but the effect my death will have on those I know. I know what it is to lose a loved one, and I do not envy my mourners.
My legs now are almost useless. I can kind of get around using crutches, but it's a very slow process, and traversing stairs is very difficult. I found out today the reason why my legs don't work. That radiation surgery I had last month to remove tumors in my brain didn't work. One of the tumors grew and that's why my legs don't work. Tommorow I start radiation to my entire brain in the hopes that it will combat the tumors. In the mean time, Kaiser is sending hospice workers to my house to take care of me. On the bright side (and believe me, I had search hard for a bright side) I can stop taking my current medications, as they obviously weren't working.
I'm currently unable to travel anywhere, but if anyone wants to visit me, I'd be more than happy to accept visitors. Sooner is probably better than later.
