bayville long island.....sundown
went back to work today after 4 days off.......took me a while but i feel it was a productive day...thanks for the feed back on my yearly rant...... i am sure we all have things that we would like to see different in this world and i know each of us in our own way will try to "make this world a better place" as sam bush would say.....speaking of a better place....i was thinking about how i ended up living on long island and the route it took for me to get here...it was a natural migration... from brooklyn to queens to nassau to suffolk county ..long island is a beautiful place to live we still have some parklands and plenty of water all around ...it is a good place to call home ....a good place to hang my hat.......well its the 4th day after treatment # 2 and my body is taking a little longer to respond...mostly fatigue has set in and you experience some discomfort in the area where the chemo enters you body....it is still a weird feeling ..very hard to describe.....ok i got it now.....it feels like the first time you work out really hard and as your working out you feel no pain..and you run through it like your superman....but the next morning you feel like you just swallowed kryptonite....and drank about 6 gallons of beer and the taste of silver is hanging around your mouth and the very touch of you body just freaking hurts.......yeah that's about how this chemo-crap makes you feel...but i gotta tell you that me predecessors have it so much worse that me.......i mean they paved the way so that i could get the "less toxic" treatment....my hats is off the them today....my freakin heros...............My CHEMo-SABI BROTHERS IN ARMS............. will meet with new doctor on thurs to move treatments closer to home....imagine being in a warm bed 20 minutes after treatment....ahhhh the little things in life that make me happy.....enjoy the sunrise......tom
