Unfortunately, not all the chemo side-effects are different with the miracle pills. Seems like same as with the treatment John received several years ago, it really kicks his tail and he is pretty pooped for quite a few days after the pump comes off. Sleeping so much and being confined are what really get to him. He had hoped to work a bit today but it was apparent this morning that if eating scrambled eggs and sitting in his recliner made him tired, he probably wasn't going anywhere.
Thankfully, his appetite is fairly good so Audrey and I are working hard to build him up with really nutritious meals, protein shakes, whole food supplements, and today, we are going to add back in some juicing although will probably wait until tomorrow for the dreaded "green juice."
Audrey is working on a green juice video, by-the-way. Hopefully we'll be able to get that up and running sometime this week for your viewing pleasure. Speaking of viewing pleasure...seems like "some people" (a.k.a. our son) just can't give up the shenanigans. One of John's friends gave him a bow, with no bowstring or arrows, but that did not stop him and his roomie (an intern at the newspaper he sublets to) from shooting flaming arrows. What the video does not show are the cops showing up, John sweet talking his way out of any trouble, and the cop radioing dispatch to cancel the firetruck. BUT, you can still hear the sirens in the video!
