So tonight's blog is brought to you by Paula and the black gentleman named Johnny W that she introduced me to on my birthday.
The following conversation happened almost exactly as I am recounting. I have only changed the names, accents and facts in order to protect the slightly more innocent than me.
(As an aside I think that I hate the idea of indenting paragraphs. If I skip a space I really don't think that I also need to indent to let you know that we are on a new paragraph. It seems kind of condescending. But I digress. Here is the promised conversation)))))))(just cuz))))))
Setting: a living room in a non-descript suburban household on a plot that contains the legally allowable number of chickens and not one more.
Characters: Role-a 12 year old boy human. Rad-a 40 year old bad ass dad type dude with magic powers and an Alar like Ramson Steel.
Role: Rad, why come you don't blog no mo?
Rad: Verily I say to thee, I haveth beenth busyth myth sonth
Role: say what?
Rad: Ah rekon ah gots ta talk dffrnt
Role: not helping
Rad: Go to bed
Now that we have been entertained and confused appropriately let's commence with the business that is the business at hand.
As previously reported Cole's last set of scans showed a new lesion (or as I have just decided to call it, legion). This means...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................we are back in treatment. Yea for us!!!! Of course by yea I mean yeah. And by yeah I mean stupid fu@#INg cancer. And by that I mean....well I think that is self explanatory (aside: which of my insane grammer things is more annoying the parenthetical fetish or the .........? The phones are open now. Vote early and often. Oh, and another stupid grammar redundancy that I have just decided to start hating. I am, of course, talking about capitalizing to start a new sentence. If I am punctuating to show that a sentence has ended, shouldn't I assume then that you are smart enough to understand that right after that punctuation a new sentence has begun?)()()(())
If you are lost, let me recap. I am crazy. I am slightly drunk. I hate cancer. Cole is going to restart treatment.
So the recommended option is something called ch.14.18 (for the record the periods herein are not of my own making) which is an immunotherapy which, as I choose to understand it, turns Cole into a mouse...or was made from a mouse, or a mouse was sacrificed in a ritualistic manner in order to create the therapy. It will mean that we will find ourselves back as regular residents of the wonderful 3rd floor. If you are part of the calvary, stand by. You will be getting a call soon.
The other option is to go back to eating sweaty socks and not eating meat fat, milk, or things that are hot (see previous posts about fenretinide).
So that sucks.
Oh well, we will handle our business as we always have. While we do, please raise your glasses and toast Cole, tenacious defender for his Abbott Falcons.
