Chemo: Day two and Day two redo

This is day 2 of my chemo program. I get an IV of Avastin, CPT-11, and Carboplatin every four weeks and every two weeks, only two of the drugs are injected. After day one, I felt like I'd spent the day having a soul obliterating substance poured through my veins. I felt terrible for the few days thereafter. Though she was just downstairs, I think I caught myself actually wanting my mommy for a little while. 

Yes. It was that bad.

The positive side of it is that I did eventually work up enough energy to make it to the Y and work out and bike race on a souped up spinning machine connected to a monitor that shows bike events as your riding. I guess these are the benefits of living in a don't-know-how-wealthy-you-are part of town. Never seen that before. I felt like I was in an arcade.

After my successful completion of Day two of chemo, I don't feel as bad as I felt before, but I'm sure it's only because I got two-thirds the treatment this time. I'm sure it'll be different next time.



    

Too many hairballs

I've spent too many days sleeping in hairballs, so I've gotta do it. I've gotta cut my hair. I spent much of last night brushing the clumps of hair off my pillow. So being that it's all going to fall out in a matter of days anyway, I've decided to just do it myself. This is your and my DIY haircut guide. My hair looks great afterword, right? Well just watch to the end of the video.
