Third Dose

The third dose is going okay. I opted for the post-chemo IV after this dose to help mitigate the side affects. I'm not sure if it helped or not, but I have not had the nausea that I had last time, which has been nice. Each dose has come with it's own unique side affects and perhaps that has been the hardest part, just not knowing what to expect. Fatigue and body aches have been the most prevalent this time. The doctor says that the side affects would get progressively worse with each dose. That doesn't give me much to look forward too :)
Just a bit of advise. Don't get cancer. :) I would like to say that there is no upside to getting cancer, but that's not necessarily true. I have never been closer to my wife and kids. It really puts things in perspective, and life's priorities seem to be a lot easier to sort out now days. Take care. -Eric

Eric,
My prayers for as speedy recovery and that you re-grow your hair. Us white guys just look better with hair, even red hair.
God Bless! George Gray
