July 9th – Through the Iris

Posted on 2026-07-092026-07-09 By Q No Comments on July 9th – Through the Iris

After 48 hours I am supposed to get my chemo bottle disconnected. The bottle it supposed to be drained in approximately 46 hours but it might drain faster because of different factors. I get the bottle somewhere between 10:30 and 11:30 generally so it should be disconnected around 8:30 to 9:30.  I think that it…

July 8th – Wither Blister Burn + Peel

Posted on 2026-07-08 By Q No Comments on July 8th – Wither Blister Burn + Peel

When I was in Grade 6, Canada was holding the Winter Olympics and our school had decided to host our own games where the Grade 6 students would choose a nation and then we would choose our team based on the population at the school. It was a lot of fun and we had to…

July 7th – Trust, bliss, date, faith, trust, hate, share it

Posted on 2026-07-07 By Q No Comments on July 7th – Trust, bliss, date, faith, trust, hate, share it

When the system works well it is rather awesome. I had a CT scan and my chemo scheduled for today. I was supposed to do chemo and then later this evening go in for a CT scan. I was not too keen on that and tried to see if I could go in earlier with…

July 6th – Anthem

Posted on 2026-07-062026-07-06 By Q No Comments on July 6th – Anthem

Time moves so fast, it is already July 6th. It seems that not that long ago I arrived in Canada and started my life. Time flys by so quickly. When you start having kids you watch them grow up so fast in front of your eyes. I do not remember all of the things from…

July 5th – What’s happening?

Posted on 2026-07-052026-07-05 By Q No Comments on July 5th – What’s happening?

We won our game this morning 4 to 3. They managed to score with 0.1 seconds left with a 6-3 PP. I think at that point Xavier was not too concerned with the final shot as we were going to win. He made a lot of clutch saves during the game and surprisingly he let…

July 4th – Somewhere I belong

Posted on 2026-07-042026-07-04 By Q No Comments on July 4th – Somewhere I belong

We had two games today with both of them elimination and we are probably the best 8th ranked team in the tournament. Since you only play 2 games, you get seeded based on how you do, most of the teams had a win and a loss, while we had two ties, which would rank us…

July 3rd – Babylon Zoo

Posted on 2026-07-03 By Q No Comments on July 3rd – Babylon Zoo

Growing up my parents were hard on us. Grade 2 was very traumatic for me. While we were living in the apartment, my father was teaching me algebra where I had to solve for both x and y. I remember yelling and arguing with my father that you could not solve for x and y…

July 2nd – Hanging Tough

Posted on 2026-07-022026-07-02 By Q No Comments on July 2nd – Hanging Tough

I had slept fairly well last night and today was a nice slow day. We went to see the nuns and we ate a bunch of times, but it is hard to know how well I ate because we were out an about for most of the day and returned to the hotel around 9:00pm….

July 1st – Canada Day

Posted on 2026-07-012026-07-01 By Q No Comments on July 1st – Canada Day

I drove all of the way to Ottawa today and it was raining quite hard once we arrived in Ottawa. The rain was pretty bad and it made driving a bit difficult with very poor visibility. I think it was best that I was driving and not Melanie as she does not like driving in…

June 30th – Wax Poetic

Posted on 2026-06-30 By Q No Comments on June 30th – Wax Poetic

Mel thought that I was pretty peppy today all things considered. I think that this treatment cycle actually went fairly well. Most of the issues from previous sessions I was able to deal with. Neuropathy still sucks and I am not sure if it is getting better or not, but it has not been impacting…
