weary of this

Not to worry-all is well, staying the course...But, dang! I sure get weary of this. 90 chemo treatments, 900 days that I felt crappy. Yep-that says 900.

I feel guilty for even feeling this way. I know how lucky I am. I have a treatment that is keeping it from growing. I have a treatment that is not so brutal that I can't work. I know there are folks out there fighting that are so sick. (Hang in there Art) But, again I say, dang!

900 days.

Happy Friday!

Today is #90.

Chemo number 90.
As I posted on my facebook page, This is good. This sucks. This is good. This sucks.

My friend Missy wrote me a message saying that there will need to be a bash when I hit 100.
Ok, so party in, what, March? Will have to count. Go Alimta--keep doing what you do.

Happy Fall! This is my very favorite season.

Hero of Hope

Just wanted to share something cool with you.

I have been selected as an American Cancer Society, Great West Division Hero of Hope: Profiles of Courage Honoree for 2010.
Long title!! But, what it means is that I will be asked to speak on behalf of Relay for Life and ACS and at their functions. I hope so...it is so important to tell our story, to educate and to promote help and hope and healing.

Have a great weekend!
hugs,
chris
