Progress

Well, I am a few weeks out from my last chemo session and still have one main evaluation appointment this week with the docs.

I know I am too impatient a patient, but I want to be back to whatever "normal" will be.

This disease has left me with problems that keep me on the disabled list. I am still out of breath all the time, my legs are still very painful and feel numb and "asleep" and stiffen up so that I walk very slowly and non-nimbly, afraid that I will fall. I also have that tingle and asleep feeling in my hands, and the loss of feeling in my fingertips makes even buttoning up a shirt a harder task than it should be.

I am saying this, not for sympathy, but that I have a hard time celebrating the otherwise successful chemotherapy when I don't feel cured at all, I feel like my body has not recovered from a beating in a burlap bag or something.

However, my hair is starting to return! Little dots of mustache hair and fuzzy dome hair:
