HEY WHAT' HAPPENED TO MY BLOG?

i don't know what kind of malfunction came over my blog the last several days, but i think posting may fix it. shoot an e-mail at me if you have difficulty in the future.

There is a month left in the semester! Which will be a month of finishing group projects, and probably starting radiation. From what I've read and been told the most common side of radiation (and some group projects) is exhaustion. While the nearly 2 months off of chemo have been wonderful, i know that i certainlly don't have the energy i did before treatment. So I would apprecate prayers to help me: give cancer the final kick in the ass, finish the semester, and starting my career!

Thanks for the prayers thus far-- They've really helped Matt & I weather the worst of this.

My Hero- Capt. Duct Tape! (swoon)

maybe the end is in sight?

I've had a month without treatment, so that my body can produce the best results possible for the various tests I've had. I feel great, I'm definitely not in the same condition I was in pre treatment, but the best I've been in a while.

Matt & I visited Dr. Chen today. We went in with our expectations very low, we've learned from experience that this maybe the best way to handle doctors. I was expecting to hear that I'd need two more rounds of treatment plus radiation. As things stand right now, Dr. Chen is 'leaning' towards radiation and maybe no more chemo. February's tests indicate no activity in the mass. Yeah!

For the time being more tests are on the books, no chemo is scheduled, and I'll see the docs next week for a better idea of what we may be doing next.

It's great to think that maybe the end of this is all much nearer than I've imagined! Even better to think of getting on with life!
