12/31 Midday Update

I find I’m doing better today. The coffee this morning was a big help. My energy level is good. I’m scheduled to stop by the oncologist this afternoon for them take a blood sample. They do this about 10 days after my chemo treatment to make sure certain blood counts are within acceptable limits. In the past these have always come out fine and I see no reason why this one should be any different.

During my five minute barbecuing last night I come up with a new image in my mind. Skin is translucent. Since the parasite has penetrated the surface of the lung I figure the parasite can “see” the light from the tanning bulbs.

In my mind I liken the parasite to a vampire that finds himself outdoors in the open as the sun comes up. In most movies, the vampire fries and evaporated. That’s what my mind sees going on with the parasite in my lung I picture the rays burning the parasite until it vaporizes from my body.

Hey, you live in your reality and I’ll live in mine.

There might be a horror story in here somewhere for me!

There may well indeed.
