chemo Day 1 (almost)

It’s been over five years since I posted here. In the interim, I’ve had two heart attacks and success recovering from each. But now I hav my most serious challenge, pancreatic cancer.

Historically pacnreatic cancer was typically discovered in later phases 3 months into the 3rd or 4th stages with no symptoms until then. Mine was such a case.


I was in the later stages, (4th stage)
and the cancer got a headstart on me.  A fall the Wednesday before  i had an appointment an ER visit ended with a Friday discharge, and rescheduling for tomorrow (July 1) and for July  8. I have every right to be upset but carrying that around would pop my bubble of positivity. So, yes, another opportunity to get treated with meds designed to kill cancer cells, as well assome of the good cells.  Guess i should be grateful.
