I miss sleep.
I was all in my head! So much pressure. Excruciating amounts of pain. Dizzy. Nausea. Vomiting …and some. Hours later, post admittance to the neurology ICU, the pain killer + steroid blend had me feeling quite chilled out. Not exactly the way I intended … Continue reading
You’re So Far….Behind!
Typically, when I get really behind on something I try to forget about it entirely. That is not going to happen to this blog! I feel as if I am so far behind here. I have lots and lots to … Continue reading
Got Milk?
The last few weeks my productivity level has been sub-subpar. I was working hard at trying to define the culprit. Well, after meeting with three docs last week, the culprit was obvious to everyone but me. WBR wears a person … Continue reading
6-Week Follow-up
Yesterday, I met with my radiation oncologist, Dr Holland (Dr H) at OHSU. First order of business is always to talk about the book I’m reading while I wait for his arrival. Each and every time he has read my … Continue reading
A Prost: To the Travel Neck Pillow
The side effects from WBR have been ramping up. I completed treatment on the 8th, but the full effects of treatment kick in 2-weeks afterwards, now. For the most part I’m tired. (I’m getting sick of hearing myself say that.) … Continue reading

Bouncing Back
After 5 full days of being in the comfort of my home I’m still not my usual chipper self. Exhaustion has taken over my body. Total exhaustion. I accepted that it could be the result of a vacation for the … Continue reading
Getting back to the Usual
Oh how I love my home! Hawaii is fantastic but it’s not my home. SW and I moved in just 4 months before the cancer was ID’d. Had the diagnosis come much earlier, we may not have made the … Continue reading
Nov 2 Update
I am not sleeping! (Although, chances are good I will be once I am done writing this.) I’m still sleeping quite a lot but not the 20-hours a day I was clocking over the weekend. It feels like my body … Continue reading
Oct 30 Update
HUGE difference between taking one-a-day and two-a-day. I’m looking forward to the end of this horrible adjustment period. I really feel as if I’ve been told an end exists but truthfully I can’t remember now. So far I’ve accomplished one … Continue reading
