History on Repeat

Words aren’t coming easy to me tonight.

I have battled from getting my writing caught up, to finding out who is really my friend at work, to who really wants to do other things to me. It was unnerving, but I have slowly accepted it. I have accepted many things. I realise that in few days to a few weeks, my life is going to take flight and I am going to be in a flurry of medical procedures, pain, and medically-induced amnesia sessions. Not a fun trip, but one that I have to take nevertheless.

Thursday morning I had my cortisone shots. Sunday evening, I went ice skating with Chloe. I found a small lump under her arm. Two years to the date that her older sister died of cancer of a similar method, I found a tumor on her? Or what appears to be a tumor? I felt cold. Frozen over. Icy. Not again. I can’t relive what I went through years ago. I cannot do it. I cannot. I am not strong enough to go through losing another child to a disease that kills more than it spares. I’ll do anything to avoid going through that again. As of yesterday, we’re waiting for the results of the admissions form. Apparently, through the clinic that I go to, you have to put in an application to be admitted for cancer treatment if you’re under the age of 18. Makes perfect sense, huh?

Thank you to all that wished me well over the past few days. I appreciate it immensely.


Energy

I have set up an off-server blog. Actually, I have quite a few. I’m getting ahead of myself again. I don’t want to drown in having to keep up with many sites, so I am going to stop where I am and then close off some that I don’t actually enjoy. Simplify. It really does make things much easier.

While I have been energetic the past few days, I can’t help but wonder if that is because of my medication change. I don’t like the thought of that, because I don’t plan to be on that medication for the rest of my life. I want to get off of it all. Get on with what I had before. I should not have all of this energy. No one who has been through what I have has this amount of energy. I am even sleeping through the night again. I feel myself slipping down into depression again, through out the day. Nothing that I do is enough to get me through what I am going through. I have been trying to work with Chloe, but she does not want to work. She wants to play. I get on the computer to check my emails and I find that someone has decided to play a cruel hoax on me and state that a friend of mine committed suicide while I was in the hospital. What kind of a sick fuck does that? It made me cry. I cried for so long. I felt even worse when I found out that I was being mocked for crying over a friend who wasn’t dead. What kind of a person does that?

The next thing that I came across was some idiot claiming that Krystal had gotten a class action suite against Encyclopedia Dramatica, and that is why the domain is gone. But she was suing me, specifically, because my friend copied and pasted something from this blog onto her entry there. What…? How can someone be sued for stating facts and opinions? Even if those facts destroy someone’s reputation, that is not the fault of the person who uncovered them. Again, had this been true, I would have been deeply upset. It would mean my close friend who borrowed those phrases turned on me. I don’t think that Krystal can view my site, since I blocked her entire ISP, but there are still other ways around that. And yes, she’s nuts enough to go those other ways.

All of that, I want to take a break from the people who claim they are or were once my friends, because friends don’t do these things to each other. Human beings shouldn’t do this to other humans. It doesn’t matter what your relationship with that person was, you don’t hurt someone to this degree. And you don’t point and laugh when you find out that you have hurt someone like that. Maybe it’s just me, but I would hate myself to an infinite amount of years if I ever did anything like that to another human being.

On that bad note, I’m going to try to get Chloe to work on some of her reading. I doubt that I will make that much progress in it, though. Can Dennis come home yet? Or can Nick come stay with us some more???


Sleepy Time

Today I feel sleepy. It started with dinner being a complete fail. Example?

Think they put enough cheese on that? That’s just ONE SLICE, too. I opted to feed the majority of it to the dog. I didn’t see any point in over eating the second day home.

Before The Great Pizza Fail, I managed to get to the store. I was out of pretty much everything. Soaps. Shampoo. Conditioner. I don’t know why I invested in hair care products. It’s just a matter of time before I have no more hair left to brush.

I won’t know the results of my tests and prognosis until May 9th. I promise to keep everyone posted. I won’t lay down on the job, I promise. :)

I am going to take a nap right now. All that cheese and putting away soaps has made me sleepy.


I Can Still Smile

We got a hail storm last night. It woke me up.

Chloe’s Easter candy:




My fingers are still dyed green and blue from the Easter egg dying last night. I loved it! I don’t know my current health status, and I won’t until Monday. Which sucks. For what it’s worth, I feel fine. All that is wrong with me is I am shedding huge amounts of hair every night. I find more and more hair in the drain. When I brushed my hair Thursday night, huge clumps of hair came out in my brush. I had to clean the brush and throw the hair away every other stroke. Finally, I gave up on brushing my hair. :(

Friday I felt really good. I was able to get out of bed and drive around Texas. I even drove the family to the Alamo. We had such a good time there. We got home last night, completely back to the city. Nick kissed me good bye, and him and his daughter drove off into the dark velvet of night. I’m going to miss him. I hate being the only adult around here with a house full of kids, but that is my life, right? Tomorrow Chloe goes back to school, and it’s just me and the boys here.

Maybe I can get back to making my video game reviews and get some other things in order. I’ll be going back to see a doctor on May 9th, and I will know if I need to continue with treatment, or if this eighteen month dance with cancer has finally come to an end. I’m tired. I want to sit the next one out. But I can still smile.
