Last night I finally fell asleep for a few hours only to wake up to a minor blood bath. At about 3am I awoke to a blood soaked shirt and pillow. The line in my neck decided to spring a leak. Meg and I did our best to clog it up till morning where we then hustled over to the clinic for repair. They bandaged me up and the rest of the day has been a write off - for Meg to. I've been trying to sit up as much as possible with my head bobbing to the left, right, front and back....like a little kid in a car seat. So tired! I'm still waiting to hear from my doc if i'm going to start something soon. I'm back in tomorrow for blood transfusion and hopefully I will begin some cocktail of chemo and whatever drug they may or may not come up with. We've offered to pay for the drug which just might happen...it's all good just give it to me. Cancer doensn't feel good and there isn't much to do about that but get rid of it.

hey buddy,
we haven't been in touch for awhile, but that doesn't mean you aren't in my thoughts. whenever i start feeling sorry for myself (recently separated), i consider the trails and tribulations you have been through. like one of your other friends, i often use you as an example of someone who has the mental fortitude to overcome what appear to be insurmountable odds. i can only bet on you doing it again, and again, and again...
get through this so we can play shitty golf or you can watch me hit some grounder forehands on the court.
love,
james c.
