Happy Halloween!

I am pleased to report that my white blood cell count recovered enough after my first intravenous chemo treatment for me to proceed with the second. I  even managed to do so without disturbing any fellow receivers of treatment - no snoring on my part.  The true blessing is I am tolerating the chemo well with minimal side effects. Less significant, but definitely on my list: a lack of nausea means Halloween treats will be indulged tonight.

Fortunately, I will not be required to go out and scavenge for treats personally.  Although, if I had to obtain my own booty,  I was well equipped for a costume.  Not too many trick-or-treaters possess a full radiation mask like this (picture from May 2012 whole brain radiation treatment cycle).

  1. You would likely win the prize for the most orginal costume. :-)
