Laughter is the best medicine

Cancer really isn't that funny. It isn't even fun. But funny things happen along the way to beating it. For example, during my last go around with Hodgkin's I was on the same treatment schedule as Bill Cosby's slightly older sister Bunny. I really don't think she was his older sister but it sure made me laugh to see her smiling full mustache and all every time I went in for treatment.

The purpose of this blog then is to share the funny events that take place while I beat cancer as well as keep folks up to date on my treatments, progress and banana flavored barium intake schedule. Please feel free to share funny things in the comments section as well, as everyone needs a good laugh.

Complete Remission Achieved

A week home now to relax, a week of tests then in for the nuclear chemo to destroy this faulty immune system and a reboot, returning freshly scrubbed cells to me. A couple weeks in the hospital until the new system is up and running. 2 weeks of sticking around Houston for daily blood tests then a few months of home quarantine where all I can eat is heavily nuked food. Then Vegas with John Winger, Cousin Eddie and John Goodman. All are welcome to join.

More fun stories to come as this week has taken it out of me.
