An in depth but light hearted account of my journey through Chemotherapy. It is informative for those who care about me but also for those who are experiencing or about to experience the treatment.

Getting Ready for NADIR
As you get closer to the dreaded NADIR you start feeling the signs........your mouth starts to feel different.................remember that movie "The Fly" with Jeff Goldbloom and he got fused with a fly and started growing big hairs on his back!!!!!!!........each day was different, started eating a bunch of sugar in his coffee and cereal!!!!!!!...........I sorta do that too!......Jelly Beans by Brock are the best, it gives you something to taste. But I really think they need to be laid off of cause I did this last time and the Thrush was not nearly as bad. Wine too! It does not mix well with this stuff.
The chemo makes you a little fuzzy about this time..(Thursday Evening).........and stupid!!!!...This afternoon I walked out and tried to unlock the car with the TV remote........didn't even change channels.
I had a big plate of BBQ lastnight.....for some of you I need to explain that I mean the noun not the verb........as much protien as I can...........won't be long before I have to hit the shakes.
After this I'll never eat a smoothie again............didn't before so it's no loss right?
As always, thank you for the spiritual thoughts and prayers. Look for "Back from the Dead 7".
