E-R-B-I-T-U-X, Erbitux, Erbitux, Rah, Rah Rah!

First treatment for chemo (remember that my drug of choice is Erbitux). A bit of a mix-up at the treatment center since I had not been scheduled for my "Day of Learning". They were about to chase me away when we had a lil pow pow and they saw the error of their ways, walla! Put in the IV and hang the bottle, drip drip drip. A mere 2 hours later and a viewing of "Goal 2" the movie and I was done.

I am feeling a bit "fatigued" but not in the normal sense that you would equate to being fatigued. It's a little bit funny (thank you Sir Elton), strange in some ways, very different in others. My apologies for the lack of adequate description but I am working to understand it and will report back as soon as I achieve that lofty plateau. I am scheduled for another "Balthazar" of Erbitux next Tuesday and will also start my radiation treatments (once a day, five days a week, for 6.5 weeks) that same day.

My journey is on its next leg......so much has changed since the beginning of this year. Thank you all for the cards, texts, emails, phone calls, prayers and conversations - it has meant the world to me. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
