Sorry for my lack of posts. Ive been out of town trying to get well before my next chemo. That said we celebrated my sons 2nd birthday this weekend! Boy how time flies. Seems like it was only yesterday that he was an infant. He got a new truck for his birthday. Its like a cozy coupe car, but a truck. He can peddle it with his feet. (think flinstone car) He wakes up now so happy yelling "Truck!!" Its really sweet to see. That boy loves trucks.
So as for me…. Im still having tummy issues. They put me on antibiotics to see if I had an infection in my tummy. It seems to have helped. Friday I go in for an endoscopy (where they stick a camera down my throat to see my tummy) they want to make sure its not an ulcer or something else in my stomach causing issues. I just hope we figure it out. Its really difficult to do anything with the random vomiting and diarrhea. Im just ready to get it resolved. Meanwhile I start back chemo at half dose.
Its crazy how expensive everything is. This month alone my family will have spent over $800 in medicine/prescriptions alone. I don't know how some afford it. Once you add the insurance and doctors bills to it, its almost a full time job just paying these people. I swear it would be nice for universal healthcare about now. Seriously. Yes, I know its a giant political debate. However, at this point I think we need it. If England can do it in the aftermath of WW2 why can't we? Some days I just wanna move to Canada….
