I may be getting a break from chemo!
To have surgery. Theres a fuckin vacation for ya.
Chemo round 6 is tomorrow. Next week I get my second PET Scan, you know where they take a scan of your dog . . . Sorry, RH didn’t think that joke was funny the first time, so its probably not funny now. ANYHOO, they are going to take a look at how much of the glow in the dark juice my liver is taking up. Likely, they will go in to cut the tumors out of my liver and I understand I may get a 4 week break from chemo to do surgery.
This one scares me a little. I mean when they took out a section of colon I figured that was just plumbing. No big deal. I’m no doctor, but I think I kind of need my liver. In fact, I have kind of a love hate relationship with my liver. You have probably heard me bitching about not drinking beer during chemo. I have given beer up during chemo except for some very very minor infractions. I’m not a booze hound, but rather a connoisseur of beer. I enjoy trying new microbrews and visiting brewerys. It’s kind of my thing. So, what I’m saying here is that I hope they can save my liver so that I can abuse it in the near future.
