sorry

This is an apology to those of you that read my post on July 26. I might have been a little depressed that day. This moment of self-pity has passed. Please forgive me. I let circumstances drag me down toward the pit and that is NO GOOD!
So, quick recap of 2008.
Started the year okay, leg started to hurt, hard to walk, using cane, cancer spread to hip and pelvic area, got two weeks of radiation, feeling better, walking better, walking worse, walking with cane in PAIN, eating Percocet, started new chemo, X-ray shows broken hip, stopped chemo, had surgery to nail hip together (not replacement, just pins and screws), hospital and rehab for two weeks, home in wheelchair, off Percocet, restarted chemo, walking on two crutches, walking on one crutch, CT scan shows liver is worse, marker numbers going upupup, start new chemo (poop), walking with cane, numbers stable, I can almost walk normally. Whew. How's that for a run-down? I think that covers the key points. And I left out the minor surgery and the food poisoning!
Some of you may remember my challenge to the year 2008 around New Year's Eve. You know, the "bring it on!" variety. It got brought. And I'm still kicking hard!
