I’m in the last week of SUTENT and it has not been very
nice; not devastating, just debilitating. That is why I have not been writing.
But some of it was interesting. Remember the mid-Atlantic ridge? And the jaw
bone? Well, my gum got thin enough for a bone spur of the jaw bone to poke
right on thru, as if Atlantis were rising again. Fortunately, the Dentist knew just what to do
and just filed down the tiny sharp points so that they could sleep peacefully again
beneath the waves of gum. He said he had
no doubt that it was not a cancerous growth.
But overall, the week has been a week of barely functioning.
Friday the 5th of April will be the CT scan.
Wednesday the 10th will be Judgement Day. That’s when we will hear whether this toxin
has been working for me or not.
Friday the 19th will be my last day of work. Yes, we’re going to have a goodbye retirement
party. Once I retire, then I can really
get to work. At least, that is my hope
and plan.
