Oh, I need your love babe - Guess you know it's true... October 6, 2022

 


Not too cold this morning, but still have the fireplace going (the dogs like it).  Today is Tiffany and I's anniversary.  I am holding up the mug because - boy do I love vanilla milkshakes :)

Tiffany has been amazing through this whole thing.  I know that inside she is suffering and scared, but she is so strong on the outside.  She has helped immensely - help isn't the word, Tiffany has kept me propped up and has not allowed me to get depressed or discouraged.  I know she is taking all that for me.  I love her more than one could understand.  I cry just thinking about it.

I have been trimming up the weed that is ready.  I must have 10 jars of bud curing right now.  It is amazing how much a well grown plant delivers.  None of the bud got huge as the growing season was messed up and I started late, but all in all we probably have saved ourselves $5K in weed.  Not to mention that the Girl Scout Cookie, Blueberry, and Bruce Banner are good strains.

I feel better today than I have in weeks.  I slept a good 4-5 straight hours and felt rested this morning.  I haven't had that kind of sleep in a long time and it felt great.  Of course my ostomy bag was about to explode due to gas (must be the filter is clogged or something - I am so not an ostomy expert).  It was so nice to look at the time on my phone and realize it was 4:30 AM as I don't remember getting up other than 11:30 PM.  I may have and just don't remember, but I'll take the rested feeling all the same!

Well, time to make something to eat again!

I love you all!

Feelings, nothing more than feelings... November 19. 2024

  I really have to get more sweatshirts.  In a couple of days we will be heading back into NYC to get my liver ablated, again.  This is the 3rd time.  3rd times a charm?  I am not sure how I feel.  I spent all day Sunday getting things done outside so I still can burst some energy out, but it leaves me exhausted.  I don't have the energy I had just a few months. I have started another blog, but public - I am not sure why I am driven to do these things.  I have always been an introvert with a need for attention I guess (it's strange, I know). Well, I don't have a lot to say this morning outside of the fact that I am beginning to realize that I spent way too much time in my life thinking about me and it is sad that it has taken me this long to realize that life is about everyone else. I love you all!

She said, she said, "You don't know shit because you've never been there"... March 24, 2024

 It's been a while since I posted (I say that every post now), but I don't seem to have the morning time I used to and I am not certain why (going to work I guess).   I have been plugging along.  Getting back to the shitty routine of work and weekends, with a mix of NJ travel.  It has been since October since I had systematic chemo and I'm on my first of at least two pump breaks.  I just had liver ablations done (6 hour procedure) and they say they got everything they could see, which tells me they have been down this path before (burn out what they can see, but the little ones are still growing).   Either way, this gives me more time, and I hope they got it all.  I have scans on May 1, so I will know somethings then.  It is all just a wait and see game; which I no longer want to play. The family is doing well (I guess).  I feel like I put everyone's life in limbo, because I kind of did.  I am going to try and get my ass in gea...

 Tiffany is amazing!  I know that she doesn't feel well as she has an infection in her kidney due to her stones.  She continues to take care of me regardless.  In the morning, I am generally able to get around without issue (except for the pain in my side), but by afternoon I am generally really tired.  More tired than you should be from just sitting around.  Eating zaps every bit of strength out of me for some reason leaving me extremely lightheaded.  I try to hide how bad I am feeling after eating as I know it upsets her. I have a lot of hope about upcoming treatment.  I expect to start on chemo as everything I read suggests they won't go after the tumors in my liver via surgery.  What I fear is that if the chemo doesn't slow the progression of the liver metastatic disease that I will get real sick in the coming year.  I had an ultrasound a year ago that didn't show any lesions on the liver and a year later I have several.  Hopefu...
