*le sigh*
Now that the wedding fun is all over, it's back to work (ie cancer-ass-kicking) for me and Honey!
Later today I get regular chemo. Honey will get off work a lil early and go with me. It's just my "wee dose" this time (only one chemo drug) so hopefully it won't knock me out too much the rest of the weekend.
Saturday, we got tickets through the Diana Price Fish Foundation to go to the Museum of Nature and Science. They're doing this huge exhibit on dinosaurs (which I love) and a big IMAX film to follow our tour of the exhibit. I'm psyched for that!
Sunday is our work day. We need to get some rooms cleaned out and set up for the lovely Jane to arrive. She should get here late on Tuesday. We need to move a twin sized bed back to the in-laws' and the bring home a queen sized to our house from my dad's. Any strong men in the area willing and able to lend Honey a hand in hauling these beds on Sunday???
Wednesday I check in for the procedure, which I will no longer be referring to as The Big Nasty because with the help of all my doctors via email, I think it's going to be wayyyyy less nasty as it was last time! Even the original Dr. Doom-n-Gloom is being supportive in helping me prepare for the pain and discomfort following the procedure. :) Honey will stay with me in the hospital for as long as I need to stay there and Jane will hang out and take care of the pups while we're away.
I finally made a couple of appointments to see Dr. Curley and have tests done again at M.D. Anderson in Houston! The first week of December, we'll be in Houston getting bloodwork, CT scans and whatever other pokes and prods they want to do on me and then visit with Curley. Fortunately, Dad and Carol have agreed to go with us and help us work with and absorb any new information we get from Dr. Wizard. Horray for Dr. Wizard!!!
Alrighty, that's enough for now. Have a great weekend everyone!!! And seriously, if you're in the area and want to lend us a hand with those beds, give us a call or drop us an email! :) We pay well in pizza and beer currency!
This is a blog about us Honeys. We've been married for 6 years, live in Littleton, CO, have a Chihuahua named Dobby, a Rat Terrier named Scarlett, three awesome cats (all referred to as our Furry Kids!) and some fish.
In November 2007 I was diagnosed with Cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer of the liver) and nave been undergoing chemotherapy since December '07 & Proton Radiation Therapy at M.D. Anderson in Houston, TX from December '08 - February '09, and then back on eternal chemo until we get the tumor to shrink away from one salvageable vein in the liver so that it can be surgically removed. We use this blog to keep family and friends updated on our struggles, loves, challenges, celebrations, goals, ideas and the general daily grind!

Sending positive thoughts your way.
Does pizza and beer payment apply to dads as well?
Dad
Enjoy your day on Saturday - sounds like a lot of fun! I can't help move beds per se - but if you need any help now or while you're in Houston, etc - just let me know!
