Well kids...here we are. It has been a long journey to cycle number six which begins tomorrow. The final frontier of Etoposide...never to be repeated. Out of all my treatments I think this has been the most challenging...maybe because its the freshest in my mind and body. I won't miss the queasiness, or the calls on the porcelain phone...and I certainly won't miss the fatigue. On the up side I never developed blisters on my palms which is a possible side effect of Etoposide.
Reflecting on my journey these past two and a half years...all of my treatments have had the uglies in one form or another. Treatment is crap...it just is. A wise Indian once said...you no hungry, no eat cow shit...you hungry, cow shit not so bad.
What's next? Labs 2/3...CAT scan 2/12...Labs and a visit with Dr. McC. 2/17.
