Well I'm back! Barely. Thanks to Marjie for keeping this blog going. If it were up to me you all would have been in the dark for the last week. This has absolutely been the roughest so far. I haven't had the energy to even get up off the couch and have spent most of the days sleeping and being queasy. Went for a walk this morning which did me good. Felt good to stretch my legs, but after the walk spent the rest of the morning and afternoon dozing on the couch and watching football. This round has posed many changes such as even less energy then before, weird tastes in my mouth, more queasiness and it seems like everything tastes awful. Water even tastes like poison sometimes. Meat is almost out of the question...just had my first today.....Uncle Dick, thanks for the suggestion on using plastic utensils, they seem to work better than the metal forks and spoons...I've finally begun to eat a little bit. Had some macaroni and cheese and tried some mashed potatoes and gravy. Both went down ok and tasted alright. I've lost about 8 pounds this week, but seem confident that I'll be able to get back to normal this week.
So here it is 5:26 and watching the San Diego game and finally not laying down on my back. I'm actually sitting on the couch and feeling a ton better than this morning.
Jane Jett, thanks so much for card, it's nice to know someone who's been there!
Thanks to ALL for your comments and prayers. I need em'.....and last but not least, if weren't for Marjie, I don't think I'd be able to do this.
That's all for now.

Hey Delta Victor, good to see you back on the board, a good sign that you are starting to feel better and that's always good news. I am really glad that Marjie kept the blog up while you were not feeling so well. I am sure that she really didn't need to add anything more to her already busy agenda, so tell her I said huge thanks as this has become a great tool for us to keep up on how are Timbucktwo Brother is doing.
Keep the faith and stay strong!
Thoughts and Prayers...
