Received the results of my CT scan last Thursday. Doctor said my recovery is looking up and it is confirmed that I will only have to undergo 4 cycles of chemo rather than the initial 6 cycles. I have just started on my 3rd cycle on Friday. My patience wears thin really fast nowadays. The 4 hour treatment seems to last forever.
Last Friday, as I lay in the ward, I looked around me. There were people just like me, enslaved to the equipment and drips. I tried to keep my mind off by playing with my PSP and listening to my IPod. As I listened to Massive Attack's "Live with me", I started feeling sorry for the people around me. All of us, here in the ward, could be out there doing something worthwhile than lying here. I tried to sleep but I couldn't as the haunting smell of plastic tubes filled my lungs, to the point I really felt like puking. I kept chanting, "My mind is the most powerful thing. It is and I defy whatever sensation the treatment is trying to conjure in me right now."
I am left with 3 more chemo treatments and followed by a month of radiotherapy. I must and I will live through this..
