Day In My Life

Blood day at the cancer center. Not fun, but came away with better numbers than last month. I am learning the vocabulary. This is how some cancer survivors talk. I don’t know what most of the numbers/letters mean, but the more I have in the normal range the better.

On the wall, near the bathroom is a magazine rack. Cannot imagine toilet reading at a Cancer Care Center, though I know most of us who take the pills or inject the poison have bowel problems. The magazine offerings range from what to do if you have bladder cancer to “Car and Driver.”

Now, who would leave a magazine about buying a high priced car in a waiting room at a cancer care center? Not a patient. We don’t think long term. A Dr who can afford one? Perhaps an heir in waiting?

Ibrutinib/Imbruvica

I have been taking Imbruvica for one year. I have not been sick, though I cannot say I have been well, either. But I am still alive and have not caught any diseases or had a cold. How long will it keep working? Will I have a relapse or go into remission. Tomorrow, the Cancer Doctor. I  like seeing him. It’s the sitting in the waiting room that I cannot deal with.

Garden of Eden Surveillance

Who could have known that a reporter witnessed the exchange of the apple and the sex? Only the reporter knows the truth. Believe as you will, my source tells me that the serpent remained a bystander. Adam did not create Eve. She knew Adam was knowledge resistant. Wanting a better life for her and their kids, she made him partake of the tree of knowledge and then shared the apple and her womanly body with him. This version is not in Genesis, for good reasons. And God, assuming there is one, didn’t punish anyone for wanting to know more and fear less.
