First I'm happy to report I am still on the correct side of the grass.
I have relocated to central Ill. to live with my parents who are pretty much taking care of me.
Take me to appts. is most important. Since I'm on a g-tube for food no cooking is necessary and I am there fore low maintenance in that regard.
I'm currently on chemo once a week for all day - Mondays. After 9 weeks they'll do another PET/CAT scan to see if maybe I'm ready to add radiation along with chemo or what to do exactly.

I sleep most of the time simply because I don't have anything to do. All my stuff is still down in GA. There wasn't time to get my stuff to get me here fast enough to start treatment.

Anyway, I'm still around.
E.

Hey Eric! wow, that is a big change. Sorry to hear about the cancer, but I'm glad you're able to be with your parents. Sounds like you're in good hands.

Continued Prayers for ya man. Do what the Doc tells you and focus on the recovery. Your parents are doing what parents do. Saintly work I might add, thanks for mentioning them. If you want us to send you something to occupy your brain, just ask.

Hey Brad, I'm in 61951 now. Not terribly far from where you met Wendel and Angel in Effingham. In fact we jump off I-57 at Effingham and hit 2-lane road the rest of the 20 or so miles.
