December 18th – Treatment Day 14

Posted on 2025-12-182025-12-18 By Q No Comments on December 18th – Treatment Day 14

Last night was a rough night. I woke up at 1:45am. At first I thought it was because Mel was assaulting me as I felt something in my chest. I grabbed Mel’s arm to stop her from assaulting me. But she was sleeping. It seems that I had some acid reflux and it woke me…

December 16th – Treatment Day 12

Posted on 2025-12-162025-12-16 By Q No Comments on December 16th – Treatment Day 12

When I arrive at the cancer center for my appointments in the morning the parking lot is not always full, but the number of cars that do not park well always astounds me. Previously, working here I had so many vehicles actually hit the truck or park so close that our bumpers were touching. Sometimes…

I have not eaten well the last two days andy earlier observations of weight drop following a bad day of eating has been confirmed again. Each day that I do not eat a minimum of 6 meals will result in a drop of 1lb. Yesterday I did not feel well so it was understandable and…

December 10th – Treatment Day 8

Posted on 2025-12-102025-12-10 By Q No Comments on December 10th – Treatment Day 8

I think that I am starting to see the cumulative impact from the treatments. This morning I woke up and every thing seemed ok, but last night I told Mel that I would make Olivier’s lunch in the morning. Upon reflection I am not sure if that was the best of ideas. I have started…

December 8th – One More Day

Posted on 2025-12-082025-12-08 By Q No Comments on December 8th – One More Day

Each time you visit the cancer center you get a bracelet to wear. If you kept it from the day before they do not print you a new one. Mel wanted me to get rid of it this weekend and wondered why I kept it on. Whenever I get new clothes, for fun I like…

December 4th – Treatment Day 4

Posted on 2025-12-042025-12-04 By Q No Comments on December 4th – Treatment Day 4

Last night we had people over to finish some more details of the kitchen renovations. Mel and I had slid the mini fridge into the space, but it was tight and not perfectly aligned. As I have the strength of a 5 year old I could not help out much. Our floors are slightly tilted…

November 23rd – Sibling Rivalry

Posted on 2025-11-232025-11-23 By Q No Comments on November 23rd – Sibling Rivalry

I am still not use to how easily fatigued I still get. People who have had a c section or have gone through it with a partner I think understand. Motion of moving up and down repeatedly that activates my core fatigues me over time. Yesterday we spent time unpacking things for the kitchen and…

October 22nd – Do What You Want

Posted on 2025-10-222025-10-22 By Q No Comments on October 22nd – Do What You Want

When I chat with Mel and my friends they are disheartened that something like this can happen to me. Mel articulated it saying that we try and do good, give back and be helpful. I am ok with this happening to me as opposed to someone else that I know. I have a strong network…

October 16th – When you lose small mind, you free your life

Posted on 2025-10-162025-10-16 By Q No Comments on October 16th – When you lose small mind, you free your life

This morning while I was making coffee I realized where my anxiety and fear from last night came from. Last night my viewpoint on this was much different than the way I should be looking at this. I have always known that all of the literature and studies have shown that when cases like mine…

October 7th – Hearts Burst into Fire

Posted on 2025-10-07 By Q No Comments on October 7th – Hearts Burst into Fire

I heard from one of my doctors today and I have an appointment scheduled in person on Friday with him followed up by a scan. I am assuming that I am going to get a tattoo to help mark to help line up radiology. Over the last couple of days I have been feeling quite…
