Good morning, just some updates and thoughts. Im a couple weeks past my first round of chemo and its been a roller coaster ride. Mainly its a struggle to find what my days are going to be like and theyre certainly one day at a time. My oncologist helped me kick some symptoms that were holding me down at first. The fatigue is constant and only the steroids helped me through the last couple days. I made it to Thanksgiving dinner at my sisters home in Indy, but that short stay proved physically exhausting. Regardless, seeing family was great. The next day I had to visit the emergency department as I was in Atrial Flutter and had to be converted (the IU Health Bloomington ED staff was incredible per usual in treating me)! Yesterday morning my hair finally started falling out and just in time for winter. I still believe our bodies are an amazing work of art that only God can truly understand (despite pain and suffering), but Im finding out first hand that they can be a real piece of work too!! Im in this fight for the long haul and everyones prayers and support are strong motivating factors. Thank you! Sincerely, Jeff PS. Its Christmas time!! For those of you who know me well also know that nothing could ruin this time of year for me. I pray you can all cut through the commercialism and find peace and rest for a great season.
