My brother (Mickey)  and me.



The chemo went very well today. As in "well" I mean no throwing up, or passing out, or sick to my stomach at all and that is because I was given a large dose of anti-nausea stuff.  I liked it a lot because it really worked. I really do hate to throw-up, all it does is give me a headache and then I am hungry all over again.  My next chemo is April 14th and then two more after that and then, I don't know.  I do know my white blood count will go very low but I'm hoping not too low.  Then I know I will lose my hair in a week or two so I best get busy on what to cover my head with. Also the nurse said I would lose more of my memory and I told her it wasn't that great now so I probably wouldn't notice.   I was pretty nervious but tried not to show it and I think I did pretty good. 


A little girl asked her mother, "How did the human race come about?" The mother answered: "God made Adam and Eve and they had children and so all mankind was made."
Two days later she asks her father the same question.  The father answered: "Many years ago there were monkeys, and we developed from them."
The confused girl returns to her mother and says: "Mom. how is it possible that you told me that the human race was created by God and Papa says we developed from monkeys?.
The mother's answer: "Well dear, it is very simple.  I told you about the origin of my side of the family, and your father told you about his."

Thought for today

The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten
past;  you can't go forward in life until you let go of your
past failures and heartaches.
