2 (more) is enough

heng ah! the new drug contains steriod which my body doesn't take kindly to. so dr khoo is fine to continue with the treatment, meaning 2 more to go!

and the haze is almost gone so i happily went for walks but the body got tired very easily. so i am taking it slowly on doc's advise.

wah, got sunshine now.

YES!

i just had my 4th chemo!!!

hmmm, but dr khoo has been talkin abt introducin a new chemo drug. if this happened, it will mean i need another 4 sessions. if we continued with the current combination, i only need 2 more. well, he said the new drug is better. the side effects are also different - a bit of pain in the bones, the fingers & toes will be numb for a few months(!) & less attack on the stomach. and i will get my hair back - my least worry.

in fact being bald now really got advantages - with the haze it's more coolin. and no need to wash hair & blow dry.

but i am not sure abt the numbness part & prolongin the process to another 6 weeks. well, we will talk abt it when i see him next week.

got to go, my eyes are gettin tired. wld like to blame the haze but no lah, must be fair and grateful at least i am not in malaysia or worse, indonesia.

add oil add oil yeah yeah yeah !

HELLO! wah really long time no ‘write’! doesn’t help that the computer kept giving problems.

well, this time the gas & acid from the tummy are like Durall cell battery – lasting.

actually, it is better now but still got acid. and i am eating in moderation. just that i am very anxious to get well, u know, must prepare for the next one mah.

guess i had it too good for the first 2 chemo, so i was expecting too much from the 3rd one. and when it didn’t meet my expectation, i got anxious. and being such an efficient administrator, i tried to fix everything.

and of course i shouldn’t be so ‘gancheong’ – i am learning very slowly. aiyah, cannot change the character overnite mah (as i am typing, i hv to keep telling myself to slow down, no need to type so fast).

it is difficult but i will hv to learn to live with not solving everything.

so with the haze, instead of the botanic garden, i now walk around in the flat. luckily the really bad haze like last Sat only lasted one day.

hey, my nephew celebrated his birthday 2 weeks ago! i was resting at home so I sent my representative – mum, to deliver the balloon.
