If the blog entries have been sparse and few between, we are going to pull the cancer card.
Starting with the discovery of a lump in the neck the day before thanksgiving and up to last week I have gone through a roller coaster of emotions. “Could be cancer, could be something else.” This was the phrase that put a damper on getting treatment started. The next was “Could be lymphoma, could be carcinoma.”
Where we are now is it could be only aggressive or it could be aggressive combined with slow growing. To determine that a sample of the bone in my hip needs to be taken tomorrow.
The chemotherapy begins on Thursday. We’re expecting blizzard like conditions on Wednesday. My son was born during a blizzard, so I will take that as a good sign.
