Last round of chemo Wednesday

by Scribe, Monday, August 20, 2012, 13:35 (4425 days ago)

I check into the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania Wednesday to start my last, 5-day continuous transfusion of chemo drugs.

I have to return 24 hours after I check out to get a white cell transfusion and that's that.

I start physical therapy to realign and strengthen my throat muscles two days after that someplace locally, and then return to work(?) in early October.

I have the most tentative of plans to shoot in a cowboy match (maybe two scenarios) on Sept. 9, one day after my 61st birthday. Every shot I send downrange will be aimed at cancer.

Truly good to hear!

I can't think of a better way to celebrate than go shooting.

Cancer is no friend of mine. I wouldn't wish it on anyone.
