Pills

The last treatment went good. The DOC told me that he thinks I may be on pain meds for the rest of my life now. Either a little or a lot. Man, that sucks. My pain has been better. The pills are doing their job.

I am going in to see the cancer DOC next week to probably start back up on chemo. I have been taking my daily chemo pill and that is working. I am hopeful the chemo will start to kill the cancer again and put it back to sleep. I am thinking if that happens my pain may go away. The reason I got the pain to begin with is that the cancer started to grow.

I been in a rut for awhile now. I have been very depressed. I have not and will not loose faith or stop fighting. I'm kinda feeling a little better today.

I have been watching these vids on you tube on Star Trek model ship building. I can not believe how detailed some of these guys make their models. I have always been interested in model cars and models in general. I think they're cool. The Star Trek ones that light up and stuff look awesome. I would love to have one of those to put on my shelf.....but don't have a couple grande to buy one built and I could never build one like that. What surprised me the most was that these guys use the regular model kits that are for sale at hobby shops and stuff. I thought they used special ones. There are special ones that are made just for high detail and lights, but the majority of them are just the regular ones. Hell I built one of the ones they use a long time ago when I was a kid. These guys are talented to say the least.

The Hot Wheel collection is coming along nicely. I picked up a few old ones on the bay last week that I remember having as a kid and have them up on display now. The lady is not disappointing. She has alot of them that she likes and where are they? In bags sitting on the couch in the living room. She gets some and there they go, into that bag to sit untouched.

I broke out a couple of my action figures and have them on display as well. I'm going to get more. They sell universal monster figures, The Mummy, Dracula, Frankenstien that look really cool and are cheap. I'm thinking of getting a few of those.

I'm done with vinyl, baseball cards and old video games. The vinyl I never listen to anymore, the baseball cards are too expensive as well as the old video games.

I have been getting really interested in Star Trek, maybe it's the models....lol. Who knows. But I have a couple of the movies on DVD, I'm going to get them all and the seasons. I'm going to go unload my Beatle albums and trade them in for that when we go to the city next. I think this is the last time I am going to change what I collect......sheesh, I'm a hoarder, lol. I like looking at the Hot Wheels and action figures and plan on getting more old toys as well. The ones I used to have. I think that's gonna be awesome. I may start a Star Trek and Star Wars collection, I have a few Star Wars pieces already.

The battle with cancer was lost on October 13, 2013. He was surrounded by family and friends days after he suddenly took ill in his home town. He has kept his name anonymous, so I will not break that policy. We will always have these reflections from him to remind us.

I sure miss you my friend! I unfortunately found out early Christmas morning that you're in a much greater place. I came here to check in on your latest news and realized you hadn't posted again since I had last checked. I sure wished I would have been able to tell you goodbye, but you kept your promise that you would quietly go because you just couldn't have that conversation with me. I've prayed for your family that they can find some peace in your rest.

You were an important part of my life for over 15 years, and I'll forever cherish the impact you've had.

I'll always miss you and love you!!

Here I am again, still missing you and our conversations. The impact of you not being here is almost too hard to explain. Just so you know, I'm still mad that you didn't get ahold of me to tell me the worst is coming. I know it sounds selfish, but DAMMIT! I needed you, and now I'm still quite a bit lost without you! Listening to your last vmail just isn't cutting it!! :(
