Today was my second-last bleomycin treatment - woo hoo!!!!!!
I actually was still feeling crappy from my double-dose last week and had low blood-pressure and dehydration today. They loaded me up with fluids, steroids, etc and hit me with the bleo. I also have some other side-effects that are kinda weird, but I can see the end is potentially in sight.
The plan (as of now) is to have my last treatment next Tuesday and head to Florida with my parents. I will be able to recover in the sunshine and PLAY SOME GOLF!!!!!!
I need to be back at the Clinic on 1/30 for CT Scans, blood tests, and to meet with my Oncologist and Surgeon. If everything is clear - I get to head HOME to SF!!!!!!
At this point, I don't want to think of the other alternative, but I do realize that I may still need surgery......
We are going to celebrate Christmas on New Year's Day since I was totally out of it on the real Christmas. I'm looking forward to it!!!!!!!
Now that I'm feeling better, my brain is working overtime and I'm going crazy being confined to Mom & Dad's house (due to my low white blood cell count.)
I wish everyone a safe and Happy New Year!!!!!!!

Ron, great way to start the new year with a Florida trip while the rest of us are freezing (okay, SF is just a little cold).
Great to hear your chemo's almost done; congratulations on getting through with such candor and aplomb.
We're looking forward to having you back in SF as we're low on the fun quotient, a Pindel specialty, and surrounded by left(ist) coasters. Kind of like being a cowboy in the middle of Indian territory.
Take care,
John
