    The swelling on my nose has gone down some but my mouth still looks real bad.

    The funny thing is i have slowed down since my last recurrence. It was just a momentary lapse of judgement like any accident.

    I am very thankful though to have my teeth and not sustain a neck injury or concussion. The first thing i did was check my teeth. Then i walked a mile back to my truck pushing my bike. I knew i looked really bad and didnt want to look at my self until i got to the hospital but i figured i better make sure my eyes werent dialated before i drive which they werent.

    It made me think twice about things but i have to keep living lifebto its fullest and laugh in the face of cancer.

    I might go kayaking today. Water is much softer on the face LOL.

    I wish we had a like button.

    Are you recovering well?

    I hope things are starting to improve and healing is doing its part.  

    Are you still 'on yer bike'? (English expression, means go away)

    Bicycling

    When I did a lot of biking, the falls that hurt the most were the abrasians!!! Not very serious,but they hurt like hell.  Heal fairly fast too. LOL
