YFC is b
ack blogging to you live from chemo. Yep, that's Mom to the left. Pretty stunning, dotcha think? YFC certainly does and he's not even the least bt biased. Well, we have a full-house (of the non-poker, non-Bob Saget variety) today at chemo. Today Mom is joined by Aunt Berba, 1.5, YFC and her friend Caro
l from New York (not far from Rochester) who is being initiated as a Chemo Buddy today (At left: Carol, Melvin, Mom, Berba). In celebration of her special day, Carol brought homemade chocolate fudge to share with the other chemo patients and their helper monkeys...err support.Mom just had her blood drawn by Shannon (on St. Patty's Day no less). Ah, now we just had a quick meet and greet with Dr. Mellott (a brief recap of the Troll's wisdom: Mom should take Advil 2x/day to reduce her incidents of fevers, Mom may need to get more TheraSphere, YFC is the favorite child).
Well we sure were in and out of there in a hurry. Since we're still awaiting the results of Mom's blood work, let's take a moment to review Mom's upcoming appointments:
March 18 - Mom works with her energy healer
March 20 - Mom has CT scan and blood work
March 25 - Mom has appointment to see Dr. Sato
YFC will wait a moment while you mark these dates on your calendar. Finished yet? Good, let's move on...
Mom attended a rockin' shindig last night at Berba's lair. Per Mom, "it was great seeing Carol
visit and Addie and Roberta made a spectacular dinner." Scintillating stuff, no? The picture at left was taken before Bubbles started nipping the pink wine. (Top row: Cousin Tobi, Bubbles the Clown, Carmen, Berba. Bottom row: Addie, Mom, Carol).So, we're still here at chemo and Mom is waiting for chemo to begin. She's been having a nice little drip of anti-nausea medication and now we're hearing a beeping sound that signals that it's time to change bags. Ah! And here comes Shannon with the Gemzar. Rock on Shannon! Later this evening, YFC will make sure to drink a green beer in her honor.
Or not.
So, YFC has a little treat for you today. After last week's lil' tiff (which, just to be clear, YOU started...not that YFC holds a grudge). That's right kiddies, as promised we're incorporating a little video in today' posting (note: if you're having trouble with the video, make sure to visit the blog , which come to think of it, you should be doing anyway):
More soon....have a blogtastic day.
Faithfully,
Corey

I like the video attachment. Leave your nose out of the frame.
Now if you can stream it in real time you can take calls from the audience.
Happy St. Patricks Day. I don't see it on my calendar from the Kosher meat market but I am sure it should be there.
Keep those cards and letters coming.
