I had appointments with the ophthalmologist and my chemo oncologist today. The chemo oncologist said we did all we could do to kill the cancer and now we just wait through physical recovery to see the results. He says it will be two to three months before I will feel normal again. He is so like Jackie Chan in facial expressions and laugh and speech. It is just like talking to Jackie Chan, so I can hardly follow what he is saying without a big grin on my face.
I changed to five meals a day; now I am not having the late one. I have been having to get up in the middle of the night from having so much liquid. Last night I choked on phlegm and got the dry heaves about 2:00 a.m. It was hard to get back to sleep after that.
Lise had a rehearsal tonight, so Sarah and I did the study thing together and cello practice. We had a fun evening together.
Lise and I have purchased a lot of tickets to performing arts events over the next few months, and I think I'm ready to enjoy them. We got season tickets to the Camellia Symphony, The Sacramento Ballet, the B Street Theatre Family Series, and the Sacramento Opera. We had planned on this before I got sick, so we voted to keep it intact.
My mouth has been the same as yesterday: dry in the morning and mucus-y in the afternoon/evening.

I just love today's photo! And it's good to read that you are recovering from the recovery blues!
ReplyDeleteLast evening my colleague Larry and I attended the Opening Night at the Metropolitan Opera, courtesy of the in-theater live telecast. It was great! But L o n g: started at 5pm and ended about 9:20! Great though!
I am so glad to read of your season tickets!!!
Love to all,
Martha
