I'm Alive!!!!

OK - sorry I haven't written.......I couldn't stay awake for more than 15 min at a time. The most I could do was try and eat and/or drink something and then it was right back to bed......

I'm trying to get my meds figured out. I take 3 diff ones for nausea and think we have it figured out which ones knock me on my ass and which ones keep me wired up. I have another one to make me sleep (like I really need that one....)

Today, my sister, Michele (the nurse) had to give me a shot (nupegeon I think) to increase my white-blood cell count. It seemed she really enjoyed sticking it to me......

On top of all of that, I had a migrane headache.....just my luck......

I finally started feeling better this afternoon. I'm sure it was Mom's pasta!!!!!!! I ate like a huge pig!!!!!

While I've been sleeping these past couple of days, Deanna has been honing her skills on Wii bowling. In fact, she may need a massage when she gets back to CA tomorrow because her arm should be sore.....also, She and my Mom have been jumping up and down taking care of me....

Besides cooking, my Mom has another natural talent - Wii!!!!!!! She is the champ at bowling, got 5 strikes in a row, and even the teenager, Ian (sorry - young adult???) couldn't beat her.....

So, it's 1:17 and I'm wide awake.....I guess it's to be expected since I've averaged over 20 hours of sleep for the past couple of days....

FINAL THOUGHT - I'm going to PUNCH my doc straight in the face for not doing surgery.....

hey Ron! Denise & I, the girls & Chris send our love from Carlsbad to you. Thanks for keeping us up to date, sounds like you are becoming quite a Wii & rock band star! Fires are burning throughout SoCal but fortunately not too near San Diego. Chris has try out #2 for the frosh basketball team, hopefully his 5'10" height will help impress the coach. I was back in Iowa for a family gathering this past weekend, it was c-c-cold! I'm sure you are enjoying the same in Cleveland. Do us a favor and kick those c-cells in the butt! love ya man,

Whazzup Ron? That Nupregen is some good stuff. That's the shot that I was talking about earlier. Nicolette and I are missing our "wing-couple". I called Deanna and chatted for a while. She says that it's raining in your part of the country. I am glad to see that good food is still high on your priority list. Hug you mom for us and tell her to pass some of that good cooking our way. Later...

The mohawk is awesome! I know you wont keep it forever but you should consider it. It looks cool on you. Had a great meeting today so I should be getting my first sale here soon. Kim says "ahhh baby raptor is all grows up". I'll be the first in my class on the board. Can't wait till you get back so we can grab a drink!

I have to say that the shaved head looks awesome! I really didn't expect such character. The scowl helps, but I think you are ready to join the shaved head / bald man organization.
Thanks for continuing to share the good and bad of your journey. You are greatly missed here in SF, but are a regular fixture in all of our conversations and get togethers. A couple new places in the neighborhood for you to check out when you get back.
Congratulations on the Browns close victory last night!
