Keep your head up, buddy.

Joel,
Keep your head up.  I have never been in your shoes, but my family has had some rough times with cancer.  My mother is a breast cancer survivor.  I don't think I can imagine how you feel.  I think that only those faced with it can truly know what you are going through. 

Stay positive and get through this.
Ben

Hang tough Joel.  Just keep putting one foot in front of the other until it's behind you. We all sending the good vibes.

I'm left wondering how you figured you sex drive was shot  :smt117 but some questions are best left unanswered.

Yes sir, my second bout with chemo was yesterday....it only took 4 hours instead of the 8 hour day on my first treatment. My ipod and my mac book movie kept me busy as I was better prepared this time. Had a russian nurse take care of me...she looked like the Ivan Drago type "I must inject you"....but she ended up being a sweetheart. The mooch charm and gift of gab got her knees weak  :smt002 Works everytime fellas  :smt045

So far, I'm not feeling the side effects but I know I'll get it bad in the next 4 to 5 days then it will slowly subside on the following weeks. Two chemo session done - 4 more to go!

The good news is that I'm maintaining my sexy 230 lbs frame which is quite surprising despite the fact that I have not really been eating as much as I used to BUT I'm pretty good with drinking a lot of freshly squeezed fruit smoothies through out the day. Been eating really healthy....think my body is going through some serious shock and awe  :smt003

Thanks again for the well wishes!

Peace out!

*on a side note: I finally lost all my hair.....just call me Fishunter the II  :smt002
