Treatment underway
today i completed my 2nd day of treatments. the Dr says i will need 30 treatments in all, so,...2 down 28 to go. My only side effect so far is a minor throat irritation and i am a little more tired than usual. I am going in to this round of treatments at a weight of 175.93. It will be interesting to see if i can keep up with the calorie requirements my body needs . I don't have a feeding tube this time so it should be a little better. My mental health is doing much better too. On the way to treatment today I was pulled over by Twin Falls finest for doing 40 in a 35, wow. I had my cruise control on and was doing 35, so it must be off or something because he was adamant about my speed. I decided not to argue the fact. I just told him that my mind might have been on other things as I was on my way to radiation treatment, etc... I also did not have my current insurance card, so,... he wrote me up for proof of insurance and gave me a warning on the speed. I can get the infraction dismissed by showing my current card which I have now placed in the car. If he felt any compassion for me it was by way of the speeding ticket warning, but he was still able to issue something to me to show he's doing his job. I will now have to stop by the courthouse in twin falls after radiation treatment to get it dismissed. at first I was a little put off by the situation, but after reflecting back I have much to be grateful for, one is that I have a car to drive, and that it is insured and that I have a valid license and current registration, so, I am blessed. I think of 2 Corinthians 12:9 "My grace is sufficient for you....."My father in law is visiting and helping out during the first part of treatment, I don't think he really believes how inexpensive real estate is here so he went out and I think he is buying some fixer upper so he could have something to do, I think he likes to stay busy. Truth is he is getting a great deal on a house and he could do very well when its done,... well that's all for now .
