Returned to Joburg a week early. Felt crummy, living on stopayne and hearing about my mom's pneumonia.
Got an extra treatment on Wednesday. Felt a little better but had to experience nausea and vomiting on Thursday. The previous treatment didn't do that. Got another treatment on Monday. I remember voices talking about the choice and the treatment being worse than the disease. Don't believe them! The disease is worse. I get an extra treatment on Thursday. After each treatment I feel better - even if only for a few days! Besides, they keep me alive.
The centre is about to close for two weeks in honour of the silly season. Well, most people get away for a while as it is also time for the summer vacation. It is also about the only time that the doctor gets a chance for a break. Which is why I get the benefit of another treatment on Thursday.
So is hasn't been all bad. Have been a little low, but as I feel better, things will improve. Have already been enjoying the hot Joburg weather. The pool is coming right...
By the way, the holiday wasn't a disaster. We experienced new places and enjoyed Knysna. Then the pain began and it had to end.
The new treatment has some advantages too. It goes much quicker. Once started, it takes about an hour. Unlike the previous treatment that could take about three hours and hardened the veins. The important part is that it works. E will see if it is effective in fighting the cancer or at least restoring some stability. Time will tell. At least now there is some reason to be positive.
