hi everybody,thanks for all your love & support. I'm still fighting this 1 day at a time, I get overwhelmed if I let myself think about the war, instead of the daily battle. I saw my doctor today, and he's real optimistic about beating this war. So here is a little about my war. wed. the 28th I'll be having another bone marrow test to see how the chemo is doing in my bones. they're giving me a rest for the remaining of this week. then I'll be checking in the hospital again for another 4 to 5 days for more chemo treatments.this rollercoaster ride could last up to 4 to 6 months.that's why I dont like talking about the war, I will beat this but I have to go day by day. this is interesting, for those who want to know what I look like without a mustache, including my wife,1/2 of it just fell off in my hands. I'm losing my hair pretty fast right now,but it will grow back.I was hoping to keep my mustache.as far as my daily battle goes my legs hurt enough to where I have a hard time sleeping. Doc gave me new pain pills for my legs,will try tonight. I wont write another blog like this one, to depressing,but now you know my war. the next one might be sugar coated, but like mary says, just a spoonfull of sugar helps the medicene go down, LOVE STEVE

Hi Steve,
ReplyDeleteMy heart goes out to you in your struggle. It can be overwhelming when each day you know you must face the battle anew- and you don't know how long the war will rage. Each day also dawns with hope, with healing and with love. Each day your illness helps others become better people by letting them feel and express their compassion and caring. Each day your illness allows others to become stronger as they face their fears and find inner strength. Each day those near you learn to appreciate life because they see how fragile it is. No matter how dark it seems and how hard for all of you, your sacrifice has gifts. I know that doesn't make things any easier, but for me at least, it does make a difference.
Blessings to you all,
Debbie
