Today is CT scan day. My appointment tonight is at 9:40pm and it is actually in a different location compared to where I normally go. Most of the time I get my scan done in the South Tower but tonight i am in the North Tower. I do not recall ever getting a CT scan…
Yesterday was a pretty swell day for eating. I managed to eat pretty consistently throughout the day and I think I have things dialed in now. Liquids are not giving me as much trouble as they have in the past. I can manage to drink things fairly easily and I do not feel crazy full…
It is still early in the day, but I think that I have things under control much better now and a lot of my vomiting was due to lingering effects of radiation treatment. I have the routine down on what I need to do and I think I am beginning to understand the new normal…
I am a bit surprised that I have been able to maintain my weight with all.of my episodes with eating lately. Today I am riding the edge and I feel full all of the time on the verge of throwing up. As soon as I feel that I can eat, I have eaten a bit…

I am not sure how the effects of the radiation decrease over time, but it seems that today the nausea is a bit worse than usual. I thought that I was doing the smarter thing by eating mid morning and thought that I could eat again around lunch time. I am struggling with that as…
The difference between our two kids amuses me and when we went to The Outside store for skis it was quite evident with the staff. Olivier was getting new skis and boots and the year earlier Xavier has gone. They had dealt with Xavier and it was super easy. He knew what he liked and…
Mel and I always try to support local companies and we have quite a good relationship with a lot where they know us by name. Last night they did not end up towing the truck and dropped if off this morning in a less than ideal location blocking in my sister-in-law’s vehicle. I unfortunately do…
