Another Week

Well what a week last week was and boy was I sick. I went Monday 6th for the blood works and they were looking better. Even though still feeling rough as a dog. The doctor said it will get worse so I'm really looking forward to the next chemo thats for sure.


My hair is nearly all gone and even the stubble is falling out so I guess soon I will have a nice shinny head, but what you going to do. Hair is just hair and it doesn't fine you. It does hurt when you look in the mirror and see a totally different face staring back at you.


The Doctor gave me a new prescription for sickness pills. When I went to collect them the pharmacist said the Insurance Company wouldn't cover the cost so I would have to pay $260.00 for four pills! So declined those pills and the pharmacist called the doctor and asked for something else. So I collected so new pills today and it just cost $18 for a months worth. Strong foods still turn my stomach so I'm being careful as I don't really want take more meds then I need.

We will see how it pans out and what will be will be. I heard the news today that Elizabeth Edwards was finally taken by Breast Cancer. She had battled for so long and was a brave lady it just a shame that nothing could save her in the end.
