Feeling a little bit better! :)

Today was the 14th radiation treatment along with the 3rd dose of chemo. Believe it or not, I'm actually feeling a little better than I've felt for the last week. My throat is mainly what I'm talking about. It still hurts a little, but nothing like it's been feeling. Taste buds are still severely out of whack and my weight is down to my normal range or at least what I feel I should be weighing.

Haven't been eating too much for the last week and Marjie must feel like a short order cook these days. We've been trying all kinds of different foods. Most of which I take a bite or two and then have to send back to the kitchen. The only thing I've been able to get down lately is soup, Jello, mashed potatoes, yogurt and scrambled eggs.

Tonight is Marjie's 40th birthday. Happy Birthday Babe!!!!! David cooked steaks, baked potatoes and zucchini. I was actually able to eat the whole potato, a bunch of zucchini and a few bites of steak! Yahoo :)

I received an email and an invitation to join a Google Group today. The invitation was from a lady named Lee, the wife of Raph. Raph was a cancer patient in the UK going through tonsil cancer. He's the one that inspired me to start this blog.

Anyway, the Google group she started is for Tonsil Cancer Survivors, Caregivers and Patients. I think she's invited about 45 people to join so far. It started this morning and I was the first person to post something on it. Checked it again tonight and there are several folks that have logged on and starting to post. I think this is going to be pretty cool. I'll post more about it later after I have a better chance to check it out.

Thanks again to everyone that's been in contact with me lately. Jennifer Martinez and Bill Weier...please shoot me an email. I'd like to keep in touch with you both.

For any of you in the Navy who haven't heard about this website, you really need to check it out. I signed up about a month ago and since then have been in contact with over 30 shipmates from almost every duty station I've been assigned and lost contact with.
