"...brown gobbets up I throw."

Dear blog,

Another chemo session over, and I feel quite ill. My blood count is low again, so I will have to go get more Neulasta tomorrow. It's time for me to get a PET scan. The lymph nodes in my neck are fairly staunchly present, contrary to expected progress of the treatment. However, the other surface-accessible nodes under my arms could not be found by the doctor. Thus, there is hope that the nodes in my neck are necrotic and things are progressing normally or that treatment is simply progressing in an uneven fashion. I am fairly anxious about all this.

Given that everything is pretty routine and some other factors there may be fewer or less frequent updates in the future. One contributing factor to this is the lack of commenting of late. At least two people have indicated that they do read but this is always of short reassurance and comments would drive up post rate.

Respectfully submitted, your obedient, in the fullness of time,
-I.
