From the chair…
Hey all. Sorry I haven’t written in a couple of days. I was just dead tired from the flight back from NJ on Monday and yesterday I had to leave work early because I wasn’t feeling too well. I ended up getting into bed and trying to get warm. I didn’t have a fever, but I kept going from being hot and then cold and not being able to get comfortable. I’m still feeling a little yucky, but I didn’t want to miss my bi-weekly chemo.
Not much to report today, though. I am feeling kinda down today (probably because I am still feeling under the weather). It’s days like today that the outlook is a little less positive and that makes me sad. One thing I am not looking forward to is having to once again pay for medical services. You see, our family met our maximum out of pocket amount (catastrophic max) in May of this year; since then, we have not had to pay for the procedures and / or medication. THANK GOODNESS for my health insurance. Unfortunately, beginning January 1, we will begin paying for services and medication. Equally unfortunate, however, is the fact that we will likely reach the catastrophic max in 2009 (likely before May); such is the life of someone with cancer, I guess.

You got to be a pirate, it don’t get much better than that.
Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh
Can you now induct some of us into the brotherhood? I call for a parlay
Merle, I just heard about your cancer (long time no talk!!). I’m sorry that you are going through this, man, but you seem in great spirits. I am rooting for you, and hope that things aren’t too difficult for you, and that you feel better each day. *hug*
