Blog where you 'posed to...

Posted this after lunch, but I did it on Trton Photos by accident. I guess I'm a little out of it....

Brachytherapy starts tomorrow early afternoon. The margins were widely negative, even more so than last time. That was the goal, and everyone is happy.. Scheduling has fortunately lined up for radiation to occur with as little interruption as possible between the surgeries, making my stay as short as possible. For those wanting to pay a visit, don't bother coming until Wednesday, after I've been released from my lead-lined isolation chamber.

I should be home by the end of May or beginning of June. We’ll have a better idea at that point whether or not an intense Rosetta Stone Spanish study will produce any results…(I think I saw a warning label on one of the bottles that read "Don't bother trying to learn ANYTHING" directly under "Don't operate heavy machinery.")

So far this has been a different experience. Definitely the most painful, but also the most restful since I've been knocked the f'out on a regular basis from my regime of pain medication, muscle relaxers, anti-anxiety meds. Honestly, the pain has just recently become tolerable with the help of manipulating the dose and frequency of these drugs. The first day or two were pretty intense. I couldn't imagine what it would be like back in the day....except maybe that one time i misjumped ye old bonfire. That was old school pain.

The lead room might block x-ray vision and cell and wireless signals, but if I can, I'll update. It should go down like I’ve explained. The radioactive seeds hang out in my arm for 90 hours then I'm through. At that point, it's just one more surgery and a recovery...

We'll it's been something crazy, like 45 minutes, since I've had anything....NURSE!!!!!

much love, CP
