First Monday with chemo and radiation

Well I made it through the day with high spirits and so far little side effects. I feel almost
normal right now. I am sitting in my recliner, watching the Braves playing the Marlins.
Some times, the Braves go into a hitting funk and tonight's the night, it seems.

The infusion center was full when I arrived this morning but I managed to find an open station after
having my blood analyzed to see if I was up to the task. The lady sitting next to me was getting
chemo for lung cancer in both lungs and had beat breast cancer 24 years ago. She was a delight
to talk to and an inspiration to me as well.
It seems to me that having cancer brings out the best in most folks and there is a sense in the room
that we are all in the same sinking boat but ready to jump out and swim if necessary.

Right now I am deciding what day or days I will attempt to play golf this week.
