more PT

​more pt today obviously. Except in my afternoon round my BP was low. It’s come back up but we couldn’t do everything we wanted. I did have a “group” session this morning so overall I’m pretty sure I did more today than yesterday.  


Back in the room chilling for now.  TTYL.

I did a "new/old" thing

So, last night was the last regular season softball game. With rain-outs and Holidays, I've been able to play about 3 games in this shortened season.  But, I've only been hitting and wobbling to first and then getting a pinch runner. However, last night... I actually played the field. First base. For the entire game.  I think I had about 3 put-outs (lots of fly balls) PLUS an assist. Once I'm on the field, I tend not to think (yes, I know... you don't need to say it) - so bending over for a ground ball and flipping it to the Pitcher covering (nice job by Keith) didn't bother me. It's more of a just "do it" instinct.  I figured 1B would be "safe" to play. No bending over, move a couple feet to my left and catch it. OK, so in the 2nd inning, I get a ground ball... and another in the 5th. And I made both plays. Maybe I feel better than I thought. Maybe my brain said "fuck it - just make the play."  (I don't think I'm physically...

Hey There... How YOU doin?

 Howdy... it's December 29th and 2023 is winding down... And guess what? I'm still here! And I'm quite obviously very grateful for it... and for you! I just wanted to write a few things as '23 comes to a close and give y'all a few updates. Treatement for 2023 is done (had the last one last week) and I also had my last CT scan for the year. TLDR - it's good. More detailed - nothing has changed since the last one. Any remaining "spots" on the liver appear to be scar tissue and (thank you modern medicine) Keytruda seems to be doing its job. (Must be - I'm typing this...) I think I have 2 more treatments to go (it's a 2 year program and I started in March of '22) and by my count, somewhere around March 15th will be the end... Then (so they tell me) I basically am "done" and just come back for them to monitor me. Cured? Nah... I don't/won't use that word (falls into the "fool me once" category) but it's no matter....

Apparently, I can't count

So apparently I can’t count. At my last treatment in 2023 I was fairly certain that the doctor told me there were two left. But yesterday she told me it was the last one - unless I wanted to continue. I was given the option even though it’s standard to end at 2 years. I went with the standard option. No benefits to “upgrade “here 😉 Oh. And my alcohol ban has been lifted. I can’t do shots or binge drink (she actually said that) but the occasional drink is ok. 😄 So. Now what? I go back in 8 weeks for a scan and go from there but (in case you missed it) IM DONE WITH THE TREATMENTS!!!!! Cured? Never saying that word. Fool me once kind of deal, thank you. But I move forward and I keep being me. For now. Love you all for following along. I’ll still update here. Probably after the next scan. Hey. Let’s go out and have a drink! 🥃
