A little good and a little bad.

Another round of chemo is in the books, and I am halfway to a pet scan to see my progress. I had a little setback this week, the numbing in my toes and tingling in my hands has forced the doctors to back off 20% on one of my treatment medicines. Most people recover after they stop taking the treatment, but some do not. We are backing off the see if I can recover and get a little more feeling back in my toes for balance. My numbers are still looking good the continue treatment even though my platelets are going down quickly. I keep losing hair and I am starting to notice now, Kojak won't be a good look for me.

The good news is that by keeping busy today and watching the race on time delay, I didn't have to take a nap like usual. Thanks to some snow shoveling and working out today I was not as tired, but I will go to bed early to get busting ass on a project tomorrow. Speaking of snow, we got about 8" last night and today. My neighbors came by last night while I was watching the Utes win, and again this morning to clean off my driveway. Rusty also called to check on me this morning as well. I want to thank all of you because I didn't spend much time outside and that stops a lot of pain for me when I don't have to be in the cold. Thank you, Thank you, and thanks again. It means a lot to me.

I am looking forward to a good friend coming to visit this week. Eric comes up from California every year for Thanksgiving and I always look forward to enjoying his company. Its a long 10 hours each way and I hope the weather cooperates for a safe trip.

We its coming up on 8:30 and I am going to get Paige to bed as well as myself. Good night everyone.

Jeff
