 Hi Stacy!

You know, you could probably sell those anti-inflammatories on the street if you wanted...

Are you going to sport the cue-ball look, or buy yourself some temporary hair? I know of someone who runs a shop at (or near) North Arundel Hospital in Glen Burnie, catering to cancer patients who want to maintain their appearance. I know she carries wigs, among other things. She told me that insurance usually pays, and if it doesn't, she gets various grants that usually cover the cost. Just thought I'd let you know.

So I guess you won't want to go to dinner and a car cruise while you're stoned and bald, huh?

I could probably get some serious cash for what these pills do for you. Man!!

I always choose the cue ball look. It's too hot for temporary hair. I have a couple really nice wigs that my insurance paid for that I keep for occassions that it would just be nice to have hair but generally I'll sport the cue ball look. I'll be sure to get a picture on here of myself after I lose it so there's no shock value for everyone.

Once things get a little more under control I'll be up for dinner and a car cruise but right now things are just too crazy for me. I never know how I'm going to be feeling from one minute to the next. I don't think you'd want to be responsible for me when I can't function. Plus, unfortunately this anti-inflammatory causes A LOT of belching. Uncontrollable belching. Loud belching. I could possibly embarrace you. These drugs also cause yeast infections in the mouth which I unfortunately have developed so I'm on another drug for that. It's helping but I think it's in my esophagus also. That causes hiccupping. I make all kinds of noises these days. Sometimes it's funny and sometimes it's a nuisance.

One of the weirdest things so far has been that "trigger" that you have to tell you not to do something, it is not working properly. I have had to tell everyone to make sure I don't walk out into traffic and I am DEAD SERIOUS. I know I shouldn't and I know the result of what could happen if I do but once I get out of the car I'm just ready to start walking. That trigger doesn't go off to tell me not to go. I am so glad I told my brother to watch me last night because I was ready to just keep walking when he had to grab my hand to stop me because a truck was coming. It's not joke, it's real. I told the doctor about it today. He didn't have a response. And I don't have to feel stoned to be that way. I'm wondering if it's because the cancer is in the cerebellum, the place where it affects your balance. I just get going and act like I'm on a mission then when I try to stop walking I feel like my body is going to keep going. Very weird.

Well, I've laid down for about an hour so I feel a little more coherent right now. The anti-inflammatory causes insomnia so I wake up a lot in the night. I'm glad I keep a journal. I've been writing like crazy. Especially at night.
