P'scuse me again...there are revisions to some previous information. Don't be worried that I'm not getting correct information. There is a lot of information to process in all of this and sometimes it gets confusing.
I learned yesterday that the new chemo recipe isn't a more intense infusion of drugs. It's simply a different recipe with the focus of........"CURING ME!" That's right. You read that right.
I also learned what happens to "chemo fried" cancer cells. The body disposes of them.
The cancer that was on my spleen and liver........GONE!
All that is left is a small, intense activity of cancerous cells that the new chemo recipe and stem cell treatment have the significant potential to wipe out (there are never any guarantees with cancer treatment).
The nurse practitioner said the likelihood of side effects is the same as what I was facing with the previous recipe. She shared a story that the worse side effect she had witnessed was with a patient who would have hallucinations (She said it was a rare side effect). Now...you should worry! Greg Frazee having hallucinations. If you aren't a praying person, I bet you are now!
My next book report will be on David Plotz's, ""Good Book: The Bizarre, Hilarious, Disturbing, Marvelous, and Inspiring Things I Learned When I Read Every Single Word of the Bible." I look forward to reading it.

Things are sounding pretty positive. As to the adulthood thing...I don't think you'll ever grow up...and quite frankly, I wouldn't want you to. Adults are no fun. i.e. the #1 phrase in Garrett Co..."What will people think?" Yuck!!
