As I near the completion of the radiation and chemotherapy I can't help but feel lucky at how I've weathered this stage. This is not to say it's been a “cake walk” as it certainly has not. Last night for example, I was in bed at seven thirty with my feet feeling so hot that Sue placed cold towels and ice packs on them to make me comfortable. This morning I had recovered enough to be able to start my day at five thirty with a three mile run.
Talking with Rich after my morning treatment he asked about symptoms; I replied “We'll everything downstairs is sore but not too bad. I mentioned that one of the side effects I didn't expect was that marital relations was now a balance of pleasure and pain.” Rich had me almost on the floor when he replied, “We'll, when the going gets tough, I guess the tough go running”
Later... Mike
