It has been a minute but time is an illusion

I have not updated here the way I meant to. A lot has happened, and nothing has happened at the same time. The cycle of chemo treatments is just the same shit over and over with a new cavalcade of side-effects to deal with, mostly related to things going wrong with one end or the other of my digestive system.

The big news is I have an MRI scheduled for tomorrow, and meet with my liver surgeon on Thursday to review. If things have gone the way we hope, I have surgery scheduled in Mid-November and they will take out my sigmoid colon, a whole bunch of lymph nodes, a good chunk of my liver, and probably my gall bladder. If not, then whatever is next will be next. If you’re reading this earlier than October 25, send good thoughts!

I will dump here some stuff I typed into facebook or other places the past few weeks in case you want to get an idea where my head has been and date them all appropriately so they align.

Thank you all for being so rad, not just now, but for as long as I have known you. I don’t think a whole lot of non-bot strangers are hitting this thing, so I am confident in saying that the human beings reading this are the finest human beings wandering this rock.

    Sounds like the next couple days are intense / not fun. I am sending all the good thoughts and reminding you that you are a great dude.
