So what is the latest?

So the last thing I told you was that I had a camera down my throat. The result on that was negative. This is awesome since now I don't have to do at home antibiotics for weeks.

I do have a small infection though on my kidney. It's been giving me light fevers at night. So I'm getting pill antibiotics. Hope that goes away soon.

Yesterday was fun. I recharged my motorcycle battery again and rode my bicycle down my street a few times. Anything to not sit at home. Even drove my car and eventually my motorcycle down the street too. Just wanted a taste. I haven't driven since early Jan when I started chemo. I did notice it being harder to balance my motorcycle. I've lost too much weight and muscle.

Other than that I'm keeping busy on my Xbox a bit and working on some misc projects on my Mac.

I'm looking forward to Monday and Tuesday. I'll be in the hospital for session 4 of my chemo. We're half way done. I just hope I don't stay longer than Tuesday and that on Monday they start chemo early. I don't want to have to wait until the end of the day to be discharged. I'm traumatized from staying at the hospital too long.

  1. Aren!!! The word 'negative' is starting to sound pretty awesome these days. Hope that infection goes away quick and hope the second half of the treatments are a lot less of a pain in the ass than the first. Miss you! You're a fighter, Aren!

Thanks again for hanging out with us during your last "long-haul" in the hospital, it was really great to see you and El again. Hopefully we weren't too much of a bother or a bore!
