it must be chemo day tommorrow, yes how time flies when you are having fun. The Dittos will be celabrating our 17th Anniversary tommorrow why I do one more Cistoplan (spell check aisle 1) then in about 3 weeks Erbitux and then Rads. I have just about gotten bored with the MASK since I have been thinking about it for so long. Really its just a piece of plastic that simply covers my face to allow me to enjoy the unique nature of RADS. Well you can tell I have officially started taking my Ativan's. PS Lets leave my comment about the MASK just between us, I would hate to agrivate the little criter since it has been known to make large men tremble. LOL

    LOL Mr. Ditto....yes, lets NOT aggrivate the little critter....
    badgers are small, but not at all agreeable. Ativan has a way of making things look "less than"...ha!

    Congrats
    Contests to you and Mrs. Ditto. As for that critter……I pray that someday it goes on the list as being extinct ..and the only place we will ever see it is a museum.

    Hey Ditto1, congratulations
    Hey Ditto1, congratulations on your 17th year anniversary! You are moving forward with your treatment, slowly but surely; it will be over before you know it. And, oh yes, the MASK, one of my fondest memories; I couldn't wait to say chow to it, but at least it gave the rad tech cowboys a consistent target (i hope)to zap at. Your comment about the MASK is safe with me.

    GroundHog's Day
    Just like the movie.....

    That's what you have in store for the next seven weeks or so of the daily grind known as daily radiation.

    Same thing day, after day, after day, after every day......

    Just do your daily treatment, rest, relax and do it again.

    Now will be the time to let your caregiver take over the majority of anything else that occupies or demands your time.

    Stay strong, you can do it, many here have.

    Best,
    John
