Just like living in paradise... July 9, 2022

 


I feel like shit.  It's the end of treatment week, my insides are a wreck and as you can see my skin is on fire.  I fucking hate chemo.  I try to hide how miserable this makes me from my family, but yesterday I was just sick.  I wonder how much more chemo my body can take until I have permanent damage from it. I already have weird sensations on my fingertips and my insides feel like they are all messed up.  I know I usually don't bitch in these messages, but today I just am pissed off.  I like to try and get things done and I have so much I want to do before surgery.  I suspect recovery will take the rest of my summer and that is why I am working so hard to get things done.

So since I am in such a shitty mood, I won't write as much today.  The plants are growing well (some - worried about my tomatoes - they seem to be wilting - we aren't getting any rain).  So instead of bitching, I will post some pictures.

The good stuff...


I love you all!

Tell everybody I'm on my way... June 26, 2023

 It is June 26th... 2023.  It is hard to believe that it has only been a year and a 1/2 since I was diagnosed (well since the first bad tests were coming in).  This journey has been interesting.  I am not going to say it has been bad and I know that sounds strange.  You see, I have met myself, more than I had before.  I learned more about love and kindness (Tiffany and my girls have been amazing).  I also learned a valuable lesson about needs and wants.  I really don't NEED much.  Some food, shelter, and companionship his the important thing.  It makes me feel bad for people that don't have anyone.  It also helps me understand why people will stay with someone that they don't truly love.   Lately my stomach hasn't felt well.  I overeat because I am stoned.  I tell myself to stop eating, but I can't seem to control it.  To be honest, I just took a 10 minute break to go shit a mound of what I ate the other nig...

Akea no ka mauna ke ‘alawa a‘e... June 30, 2025

  I figure I can milk these Hawaiian songs for quite sometime.  Especially, since I don't make posts as often.  I mean, how many times can I tell you the same thing? Well, speaking of things, the tumors shrunk!  This is good, means chemo is still having some effect on the cancer.  Sometimes I wonder if my body is going to be able to handle it long enough.  This last chemo cycle was hell! Well, I just wanted to say I love everybody and that the fight continues. I love you all!

When a man loves a woman... May 22, 2025

Image
 You probably can't tell, but I am shrinking.  If you find a picture of me in that same sweatshirt from 2 years ago, it is quite noticeable.  All in all, I am still doing alright... considering.  Chemo is kicking my ass hard, but I get about 3 days where I feel good enough to get stuff done.  The 3 to 4 rough days of chemo is painful, but I try to focus on getting through.  Speaking of chemo, today is chemo day (joy joy).   Tiffany is so amazing about taking care of me, I don't know how she does it all. Well, I am going to pretend to work for a bit, then head out to the hospital. I love you all!
