casey.. johnny "nor" nephew david and me...singing our hearts out.........
hope all is well with you and yours..went to see the movie rent last night (cause walk the line was sold out) and i must say it was better than i thought it would be..much like the chemo treatment that i am gonna start on tues.... it should be better than i thought.....yep you heard me they found a slot open in the manhattan sloane i will take my first two treatments there (this tues and next tues) and switch to the long island office for my other six with a week off between each set of treatments .....a week off sounds nice but i will try to work the days with no treatments cause that's what i know ....Steve (the head hancho) has been amazing to me and i am given all the time i need to get well...that is a huge lift off ones shoulders...and i almost feel guilty about it because so many people get screwed by their jobs when illnesses come into play....the two drugs i will be taking are called...Cisplatin..(siss-platt-in) and gemcitabine (jem-cy-ta-bean) or from now on to be referred to as GC....both poweful drugs but a better treatment plan than what used to be the "gold standard" to bladder cancer...GC will have far less side effects and i should be able to keep the hair i have left ( notice i keep beating you all to the punch line about hair loss) clever aren't i......anyhow i will have a ring side seat on tuesday and will have all the juicey gossip from the other chemo patients in the room ..imagine me sitting still for over 4 hours.....i pity the person next to me ..i will be cracking jokes and getting weird looks i am sure.....but when it comes down to it i quess thats what i live for......that and to write to you all ...my favorite humans on this planet....sorry i missed a day Candy....must of dozed off after the leftover turkey.... it is a good thing to get this show on the road......so i could get back to selling shoes........
