- Driving in the sunshine with K, listening to super corny 80s pop group New Kids on the Block and cringingly laughing because we realise we know all the words to The Right Stuff. (God, they were sooo bad - both the lyrics and the singing totally diabolical. Simon would have had a field day!)

I successfully completed part a of my second round of chemo. I came out of hospital on Tuesday morning, feeling a little jelly-legged and like I had spent the last five days hooked up to an IV pumping toxic chemicals into my bodies, but overall feeling pretty good. K was with me and it was […]

How cool is this?
So Keith went out to our local Chinese for lunch on Wednesday and at the end of the meal got his fortune cookie. He thought it was a cool and appropriate for our situation message so he sent me a photo.
It’s hard to read but it says, “Use your abilities at […]

It looks like we’re moving forward with round 2 of the chemo. I had an appointment with Dr.S yesterday and again Hgb and white cells were doing well and happily my platelets had gone up up to 46! Now I did have a transfusion on Friday but that means that if nothing else they […]

To add insult to injury during the whole hive, drug reaction, sitting in ER for ninety billion hours fiasco on that Saturday night whenever it was, K and I also experienced the death of my VW Golf. I know, totally lame. So we finished with Casualty and stopped off at a chemist to stock up […]

Having thoroughly been dosed up on Benadryl, steroids, morphine and goodness knows what else, I have finally been released from the dreaded hospital bed back to the Lodge, after the doctors confirmed that the hive reaction was due to one of my antibiotics and neither the lymphoma, (which can apparently sometimes manifest itself through the […]

Itch..scratch, scratch, scratch…itch…itch…scratch…this has been my body for the last four days. Friday I had a platelet transfusion which was fine. I then had a blood transfusion and about ten minutes away from finishing my second unit of blood, I felt like what I thought what an insect bite on my face. Over the next […]

Finally, I’ve finished my grading for Educ.205 and have submitted the students’ final grades…only four days late! Unfortunately it’s been one of those weeks where I’ve been in and out of hospital so much for transfusions and labs that trying to get through their final projects has been quite a task. Still it’s done now, […]

The Methotrexate kicked my butt. I spent a day in la-la land and spent the following day having to be reminded of everything I said or that occurred the previous day. I am now officially finished with round 1 of the Hyper C-VAD chemotherapy regime. I’m back to the waiting stage as we watch my […]
