The journey begins

Thanks so much! Looking forward to getting treatment going, as I said. Not so much to the discomforts etc., but it's all part of the package. I'm really crossing my fingers and doing some visualizing that nodes will be negative (of course they are what they are, but if I picture them negative it can't hurt, right?).

Wouldn't you know ... developed a sore throat in the past 24 hours. Arrgh! It won't prevent the surgery but will add to the post-intubation throat pain. I'm sucking on zinc lozenges and scarfing down the Vit C.

The wait/anticipation is worst than the actual treatment, because then you know your making progress. You'll buzz through this, write a book about it, NYT best seller for months, book tour, Letterman & Leno, crown heads of Europe and Asia...

Be sure and stop in the Cellar to say high to your old buds. When you get a little time, that is.
