3 Too Many

Friday 8 June Ramble

T Day = 33 (Adjuvant chemoradiation) – 6 Radiation & 10 Chemo to go this round.

Early night has worked and have a great sleep.  And up early as usual to start the last day of the week. Another frosty one.  Get drugs ready and make a cuppa tea to warm, up. Try to sit down to blog – and the site is still down :-(  Oh bugger!  Not feeling the most flash today either, but think I can get on top of it.  Need to watch time today as Jono is picking me up at 8:20 to get me to the hospital by 8:50 for an X-Ray on my back & spine – they are trying to find out why I keep getting so much pain there not just now after taking the Chemo drugs but also later on too.  Then I have my last zapping of the week at 9:30 – again take time to get mask in position & it makes the whole treatment so much easier & relaxing. 

Finish up quickly and head out to logistics print site to remove the network and remaining IT gear.  Decide to stop at Cafe Raeward for brekky on the way.  Nice surprise to see Cath there.  Great to hear about New York and the trip.  Also she has got a present for the boys from the M&M’s store – it is apparently 3 storeys high of M&M stuff!!  Sounds like an awesome trip.

Off then to the frozen land of Logistics – there is snow everywhere still.  The portacoms are bloody cold but then again the heat pumps are not running & there is no one in them.  Go through them stripping any remaining IT bits out – cables, switches, etc. Good job done. I’m starting to fade noticeably and not feeling quite right – so wonder if I have a bug on board – so Jono arranges to drop me at Tower Junction with Sue.  We then head to pickup Jacob then Lachlan – though I fall asleep & miss the whole trip to and from schools – when I wake up again I am asleep in the car on the drive alone. Go inside and find out we had not long got there.

Have a quick cuppa tea and a bite to eat and drugs to take, then head to supermarket to get some bits to get through the weekend. Go past the Chemist and pickup the last lot of Chemo drugs for this round – yay – the first round of the battle is almost over.  Then home for tea.  Find the Blog site is back up and running so do Thursdays blog and then start on Friday’s.  Keep dozing off while doing them as not feeling brilliant.  Thinking I have a bug on board too as I have a runny nose, wheezed up, headache, and generally feel lousy – bugger it all!!

 Quiet night all up so going to do M&D time then hit the sack as need some sleep to try to shake this crappy feeling.  No footy tomorrow as all the grounds are shut to all sport so a novel sleep in for all.

Have a great evening/day/arvo all – and be safe.  Till the morrow.

Kia Kaha.
