Mid-term Update #18

Well it’s been 5 weeks ago this past Tuesday since I’ve had any chemo. I go in next Tuesday for the Clinical Trial Drug. The Trial does have side effects…appetite, fingers and of course the hoof and mouth. But not like the chemo…...no “hung-over flu” it seems to be getting better, it may even be the chemo…I hear it sticks around for several months.


Other than that I’m Good! I went to our company party a couple of nights ago which was meaningful to me because I missed that party last year due to my first NADIR. I was surrounded by very good friends and Angels……and so was everyone else there….they just may not have all been as conscious of it as I was.


I try, as much as possible, to look at this in an almost 3rd person perspective and I don’t want to always harp on this but…….I really do feel the flow of energy that comes from prayer groups and other sources of spiritual thought. I almost had to feel it to believe it.
I’m a little more Woo, Woo than a lot of you and not nearly as much as some of you that I know……...but this shit really works!

I know I still have a fight ahead and almost feel as if I'm in a stale mate but as I've said  before…I’m not in this to Tie…I’m in it to Win…and I will!


Hey it’s Christmas!  I must say this one is a lot happier and healthier for me than last year. Last year the Doc had told me that if I didn’t go on chemotherapy I only had about 6 months….Boy! Talk about words that will get your attention!!
Now it’s 12 months later and my PSA level has dropped from 374 to 26 as of 2 weeks ago, my scans show a 50% reduction in the tumors, I’m no longer on the chemo, and I feel relatively good! I can’t ask for much more than that!

Everyone PLEASE have a SAFE and Happy Holiday and thank you again for the Prayers and Spiritual Energy….Keep them coming! I’ll Update next Tuesday. B.
