Well, I went through the latest chemo on Tuesday. Side effects got a bit worse for the last 2 days, but much, much better now. I'll say it again, stupid chemo side effects! But remember, every day is a good day! Even today!

So they aren't sure now if they can use my blood for the bone marrow transplant. They will decide in about 6 weeks after 2 more big chemo therapies. The great news is that the new chemo is working wonders, no more pain, and organs are rapidly shrinking back to normal size and I am not considered critical. Double woo hoo!

With any luck, the chemo will force this cancer into remission and they can decide with type of bone marrow transplant I can have.

The "bald BBQ" was a great success! The group photo is everyone that had their head shaved that day. My granddaughter is in the picture cuz she wanted to shave her head to, but we told her it wouldn't be a good idea at her age and the risk of being picked on at school. So we let her in the picture instead! I am very proud of my family and all of you for the support in this little journey of mine. I'm the old guy in the middle!
