I had good dr. appointments last week so that is good both dr’s at St. Barnabas were very nice and unless this dr in Morristown knocks my socks off on Thursday, I will probably be getting treated there. I am going for another MRI for them tomorrow. I just had one on Friday, but they all like using their own machines and it bills another $2500 for them to my insurance. The money is in the treatment not in fixing you. It is weird my blood numbers have been off recently and I haven’t had any chemo in like 5 months. The radiation program they outlined for me is 6 ½ weeks. I am hoping my side effects aren’t bad. By the end of it I should be pretty worn down which I am aware of will happen. I have had 3 arm seizures in the past 2 weeks so I have a period after each of those where my arm reverts back in usefulness. My doctor increased one of my drugs a little more. Hey something one day is going to take me out I don’t know if it will be my head or the drugs. Every family has a junkie and I have that covered in my family. I know what I have done that most people refer to when they say, “I couldn’t do what you are doing.” It’s not the doctor’s, surgery, or treatment, it’s the lack of freedom and ability to get around for myself. It’s only been 5 months without driving though. My record is 18 months. In positive news, yesterday we went and looked at 7 places and found 2 possible places for our marriage. I know a lot of the venues from djing for 8 years. So I took the New Jersey wedding hall lists and narrowed them down more today. My only major request is no DJ!
