Iron Will MED SITREP (11 DEC, 1846hrs Local):
One step forward, two steps…
They did another X-ray on Iron Will today because things are a little off. This X-ray showed he is still battling viral pneumonia exacerbated by the reactive airway disease that he’s always had.
So a
Update: Spoke with my oncologist earlier , turns out the biopsy shows that I do infact now have lung cancer. Scheduling spot with my hematologist to discuss the future.
Last day of radiation tomorrow, man they were kidding that it really ramps up at the end! Haven’t eaten solid food nor able to get down shakes or water at a decent rate. Tongue is swollen as shit as well as throat 😖. Luckily I’ll get 2 bags of fluid tomorrow.
The k you from the deepest part of our souls to everyone that reached out, helped, shared everything to help find our beloved daughter. Now I see that this place is full of amazing people that are always willing to help. I love you all and I mean this sincerely
Welp, kid ran away after school , with her BF. Cops working on it , pinged phone and they were headed south towards Yonkers NY… her phones off as well as his and everyone’s blocked on social media now. Will update
4 more days of radiation ! I’ll go to hospital for IV hydration twice a week to make sure that damn chemo is removed from my body. Cant wait to recover from all of this. Man I want a huge steak !!!
Welp… seems I’ve been given a trial to overcome my friends. After many biopsy’s, scans and visits. Seems I’ll ultimately be having either surgery and chemo or chemo and radiation on account of the dreaded cancer. So with this information, we move forward.
Nearly walked out of the CPR class on account of the trainer saying and I quote “ what is the most common problem these days? Gunshots , you know this is why you don’t use an AR-15 to hunt deer because it destroys everything” I swear this was said and I was like bruh….
So here’s an update for those who have shown interest and kept in contact. Went to see my oncologist today, took some blood for HPV and gene tracing. PET scan has shown 4 spots in my lungs basically 1 in each lobe. One specifically is rather concerning. So here we go lung cancer
Quick update : no need for speech therapy visits, radiation nurse visits , nor hydration unless I choose it’s necessary. See oncologist in a month for follow up and scans. We’re moving along nicely.
Ok , so I have to say I am beyond touched by the outpouring of support by all of you. If I miss even one of you trust me I will get back to you! But my lord …. My thumbs are gonna fall off! Love and appreciate all of you! I will keep you posted through the days and weeks.
T minus 1 day until treatment starts. Headed for a practice run in the morning, make sure everything is in order, once that’s done treatment starts on the 13th. I want to thank you all for the support where my GoFundMe is concerned as it continues to help our little family
Back to work Sunday!!! It’s been 4 months and 2 weeks away but finally get to get back in the saddle. Thank you all again for the endless support. Love you all like family.
Well boys and girls tomorrow morning we’re headed to the OR as planned , I’m praying this small procedure remedies my speech and eating abilities. Lung biopsy is scheduled for the 5th of June so updates will follow then.
I don’t want to toot my own horn but… I successfully eat a hot dog with mustard and sauerkraut for dinner last night. May not seem special but it’s a huge win for me
I want to take a moment and say thank you to those of you I’ve known for awhile, those I haven’t, thank you for all the support, the advice and simply love during this time of stress. Thank you all from the deepest place of my heart. Love you all, here’s to a new day
Finally trying a try Chicago style deep dish pizza. This is at Giordano’s, but I’ve been told I need to try several versions before making a decision as to which is best.
Chemo
#5
done , had to find a new vein in my right hand as my left forearm has fought valiantly for 4 weeks but alas… the veins will suffer no more. Chemo takes a toll on em.
I want to wish each and everyone one of you a very happy, healthy, prosperous and fun filled Merry Christmas!!! Love you all, thank you to everyone who during difficult times still found a way to help our family while we deal with this nasty thing called cancer. God bless you all
Belt size went from a solid 38 to currently 32-36 in a month. Not bad… not bad at all. Thanks cancer ! Now I gotta bulk up so I can loose it anyway lol. (Yes this isn’t funny, also yes it’s funny to me) stfu if you don’t get my humor
Just got home , feeling good probably due to those 2 bags of fluid. Got to keep the IV in thankfully so I don’t need to be poked and prodded tomorrow morning for more hydration fluids.
Day 1 of chemo in the books !
Well, all that seems to handle now is radiation after a few weeks of recovery. Learning how to swallow again, speech is a bit off so there’s that as well. But I am home , and let just say this. FUCK CANCER
I’ve already decided on my path, I’m going to go through yet again another surgery. They’ll remove a small bit more of my tongue (base) it’ll be yet again more learning to swallow and speak which has been a struggle thus far. But I’d prefer to not deal with the chemo and
Well my uncle Jerry passed this morning. He was an amazing person, a Marine veteran , a father, a brother and the most kind person I’ve truly ever met. He has fought through 4 types of cancer and finally he needed the rest. Rest in peace uncle Jerry I love you.
