Hey everyone.
Today is the 16th day since I took my last chemo drug in cycle two. I am deep enough into my rest cycle that all of the queasiness and most of the fatigue from cycle two is gone. I do not miss it. I start taking the meds again on the 23rd.
I went to the annual Garlic Party that is thrown by some good friends this last weekend. Everyone takes a dish that they have prepared that contains a fair amount of garlic. Each dish is laid out with a number and then everyone snacks. People also have a drink or two and laugh. Towards the end of the evening everyone votes for their favorite three dishes. Winners get prizes, accolades and breath mints. Amy took third with her mushroom cheesy tarts or cheesy mushroom poofs depending on your current needs. Thanks to Rich,Shannon and the boys for a great time.
I also spoke to an old friend who was afflicted with a horrible neurological bomb called Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. His story made me realize how lucky I really am in life. If you have any extra good thoughts please send them to Brian.
Love to everyone reading.

Well guess you are back on the meds by now..hope you are feeling better this time around.
The garlic party sounds cool, just glad to see there is no kissing contests..I bet there are no vampires around either. (snort) ok, that was a bad joke.
Take care!

Glad you're feeling good and congratulations to Amy! Cheesy mushroom poofs sound good, even at 9am.
