OT: Mojo needed - Stinky - UPDATE

[Stinky Wizzleteats+]

It has grown through the muscle wall of my bladder and into my near by lymph nodes but not further. Technically a stage four, but not as bad as other kinds of stage four cancer is the way my oncologist put it.

What exactly will they do on Monday? And being stage 4 does that mean you have cancer in other parts of your body?

Stints between my kidneys and bladder and a pick line to my heart for the chemo treatment.

That sounds like relatively good news. At least for stage 4. Cool!

Why the pick line to the heart? I know it's for chemo treatment but why?

Prayers Stinky!

It's easier on my vanes. Chemo can be hard on smaller vanes.

Prayers sent Stinky. Kick its ass.

In the group I used to go to - for people with mental illness - there was a woman my age (53) that was just completing her chemo treatment and she had a bandage over her heart for exactly what you are talking about. Before reading what you described here I thought it was directly related to the cancer site itself but apparently it's more likely a port site to deliver the chemo (area for the pick line). She's fully recovered now. I expect the same for you too.

Damn. Kicks its ass bro. Thats heavy.

[Highboltage]

Prayers, Mojo and anything else I can think of to you!

[Formula 21]

Fuck! That's not fair. Nobody deserves cancer. Wishing you the best, I know you can beat it.

Looking forward to some dark humor from you.

Stinky, if you would like, I can ask Maddy (the woman who kicked cancer) to relay her phone number to you. You can get good info on what to expect from a fellow person who just went through chemo for a period of months. Let me know if you're interested. Maddy is married and has kids. She used to work as a peer counselor at County Mental Health over here in the desert. I think she would be honored if you'd be interested in sharing with her. You could ask her things that not everyone would think of or know. Totally up to you of course.
