All right, all right, all right already! I can hear Peter’s cute little accent in my ear goin “it’s been a while Chris! Where’s your blog entry?”.. Here it is…

So I went in for chemo like… a while ago.. I know it was a Monday night, prolly like two weeks ago. My drip was to be for 2 hours every 12 hours for 6 doses. I made it through the first 4 fairly uneventfully. I ended up spiking a fever and had to postpone the last two doses for a day.. no real biggie. My thoughts on the big picture: didn’t care for it too much but it wasn’t too bad. Got a little sick to the stomach but not enough to write about. Mostly it just wiped me out and I slept a bit. I got a good chunk of Harry Potter read and I was home in a jiffy. The days following weren’t as fun. I ended up getting a rash from the chemo that itched unlike any itch ever! I itched and itched and itched.. it sucked. Once my rash subsided, I found myself tied to my bed (I wish, he he he) most of the time. I had no energy but knew it was par for the course. By this time it was like Wednesday of last week and I had an appointment on Thursday. It was questionable whether or not I would have enough energy to drive myself to New Haven.. but I did. Thursday came and I dragged myself out of bed, showered and headed on down. I knew I was going to need some kind of blood.. and I wasn’t disappointed. I ended up getting just platelets which surprised me, I thought for sure I’d need some red.. but I didn’t. I had been running a low grade fever for a day or two (again, par for the course in my opinion) and had a smigid of a fever when they took my vitals during my platelets.. Damn it! They kidnapped me and locked me in a room to rot! Well kinda.. they didn’t let me go home. So I’ve been here since Thursday, pissing and moaning every step of the way. I just want to go home and sleep in my own bed, eat my own cereal, pee on my own toilet and take a nice shower. I don’t want much.. just to go home.

I don’t know when I’m gonna get to go home. They mumble something about not having any white cells and blab la bla.. I haven’t had a fever in like.. forever.. so..
