Due to the admittance to the Weinberg Cancer Center, I was not able to participate in the Komen Race. William had picked up the T-shirts from the registration though since the walk was near his work place. We'll have to take a pic with the shirts even though we didn't go.
Looking at the bulletins boards, I read that chemo can affect your eyesight--blurry vision, dry eyes, even cataracts. Although it may get better after chemo, it's possible it may never be the same. Now, that's one thing the docs did not tell me, and I had to find out on my own.
I'm told to leave "surprises" for my nurses. I left one in the toilet (You can guess what it is) this morning as instructed yesterday, but now that I've had a change in the appearance of said surprise, I must leave more for inspection. Man, it's hard to keep your dignity as a patient! It got me to thinking about how in ancient China, the imperial physicians would check the excretions of the King. Still feels weird.

Love that tidbit about the imperial physicians in ancient China. Are you giving off royal airs now?
Glad you know longer have a fever. Sometimes I am scared to read your blog because I may find out something else horrible that you may be experiencing. Stay strong!
Tomorrow is my birthday. My biggest birthday wish is for you to get better SOON. I really don't want to feel sad for my birthday.
Hugs and kisses.
Oops - typo in previous post Re: "Glad you know longer have a fever." Should be "no longer" of course. Felt the need to correct it. Perfectionist or just plain anal?
I'm giving something a little more substantial than air. =>
Happy Birthday, Sabrina! Birthday wishes are suppose to be kept secret. You get to make another one! Besides, my neutrophil counts are already on their way up!
isn't it funny. there are few times in life where we all stand around and clap because someone has pooped. first is when we're being potty trained and we successfully make it to the toilet. second, when we've been having some trouble. and third, when we're back in diapers at that age where, as you say in your most recent post, we have grown to be old women with lotsa wrinkles around our eyes.
