Sunday Day 257

Happy Sunday - Nov 1 2009
Another Halloween down in History - We had a fair amount of Trick or Treaters - Way better than last year -we where home instead of the hospital. Well had a gutter fall off the front of the house well hanging off the front of the house - so to keep kids safe Stacy & I enjoyed hanging out side in the the drive way giving out candy. Got someone coming out Monday to fix that deal. Bad storm the other night ripped it half off the house - always something -

Well did the roll back time thing so getting an extra hour not sure if that good or bad - guess it depends or what your doing.

Had a good week last week got allot of work done and I felt pretty good. I missed playing racquetball both Wednesday and Saturday so I better play this coming week. Well my mouth is still pretty bad some days better than others - so depends on what eating for food too.

Well I got it worked out that I don't go to Nashville in month of November next appointment is Dec 4th. So just Palm Beach for Thanksgiving - coming up in couple weeks.

Well hope everyone has a great start to a wonderful Nov - as we wrap up 2009

Sunday Day 250


Hey Hey Hey - Day 250 -
Chilling with some Coffee and little Dog - Teagan.

Well had a good week - was traveling for business and work went good.


Had the trip to Nashville on Friday - the Dr appointment went well - they gave me some more medication for my GVHD in my mouth - the nurse and Dr said it is pretty bad. They also put be back on Cyclosporin (the preventative drug for GVHD) so I started taking it this morning so that will take a awhile to kick in.


Had a peaceful day yesterday got some work done around the House little bush trimming and mainly fiddled farted in the garage and organized it a little so I can get my car in there too since it is getting cold.

I have allot more to do, but just doing a little at a time is the best way.


I am just doing some work today on the new support site I am on http://beta.navigatingcancer.com/users/48

I did some updates last night.

Played a little on line spades too last night something I hadn't done in a long time that I love to do and did fairly constantly when I was in a league.


Well this week is Halloween week - Taylore is going to the Rocky Horror Picture show - a Dance Friday night and Saturday night will do some trick or treating - so busy week for her.

We did not decorate this year - we are just happy to be home and here for Halloween and no hospital visits for us.


Have a Great Week All -

Happy Anniversary to my Sister Michele & Her Husband Brad -

Sunday Day 243

Good Morning all your Bloggers out there - Another Sunday

Had a good weekend - played racquetball Saturday did some yard work had a control burn of some brush. Watched Bama game Saturday night

Had a good week was pretty busy - headed to Belleville IL Monday morning for some IT work for our Midwest team. First time flying since the transplant - should be OK little nervous not sure why I take all the precautions with hand sanitizer and stuff every day as it is now so shouldn't be any different as I will have some in my pocket - so should be fine - short flight to St. Louis. Head back home Wednesday will work Thursday and then head to Nashville Friday AM for Dr appointment.
No biggie just routine monthly check up with labs - Still having trouble with my mouth Graft Vs Host - some days it is pretty bad starting to bother me. I have the swish they gave me it helps, but some days my mouth just hurts. SO we will see what Nurse and Dr say next Friday - probably not much - this is certainly not too bad as apposed to some major reaction or problem with a vital organ - so I guess it is what it is - dealing with it - I am pretty good about that what choice do I have.
Well Halloween is week after next - I can assure you it will be a better one this year and I won't be in the hospital like I was last Halloween.
Gez then Thanksgiving - no Smokey mountains this year Taylore is going on a cruise with her friend Arwen and Stacy & I are going to go to Palm Beach to have Thanksgiving with my folks and then Drive home with Taylore's car her Grandfather is giving her - his current Vehicle a Lincoln Navigator - she is excited about it - first car - It is really nice that her Papa is offering her it - not a bad first car. On the drive home we are going to Tampa to see my Grandmother - she is having a little trouble and has moved from her apartment to a assisted living apartment - she says it is really nice.
Then the next month Christmas and damn another year gone by - 2010 here we come.

Well hope all is well with everyone - have a good week

Have an extra long weekend this weekend with Columbus Day being on Monday - Banks are closed so get extra day off.

Well hopefully going to get a win this week on my Fantasy football team with my dad - we have not won a game yet - has just been bad games for our players - I think it going to turn around this week - I hope so sure don't want to be like the Detroit Lions with no wins.

Well hope everyone has a great week.
Love To ALL

Sunday Day 229


Happy Sunday Morning - Week 4 of the NFL-
Going to be a gorgeous day here in BHM. So they say - not looking like it now, but should come around like yesterday it was awesome 77 - man I was very bummed yesterday and missing the Bike thing - was a perfect day to be out riding.

Here's a PIC from the Creed concert in Atlanta couple weeks ago.

Parents Day at Taylore's school today at 1 pm - 3 pm.

So the results of last scan on September 25th was CLEAN - Still CANCER FREE -
Well it looks like we did it - KICKED CANCER ASS Again - sorry you miserable disease you are no match for the BUZZMAN - Kinda like the energizer bunny STILL GOING ! ! ! ! ! !

Had a really good week last week. Felt great everyday I have had allot of energy and not feeling tied. I am still dealing with GVHD (Graft VS host Disease) in my mouth, but I have that swish to get it under control - I have had very dry mouth too, but hey if you have to have some GVHD this is the one I want instead of some major problem with a vital organ or something serious.
I have been getting some feelings of being overwhelmed with work, home this that the other - I got some meds to help and it does, but I think I need more or higher dose. This is something that I have never experienced - I have to check with my sister to see if she is like that.

Well It is had to believe it is already October and Halloween is right around the corner with Thanksgiving and Christmas right behind that and then 2010 !!! - amazing how I am doing now as apposed to 1 year ago getting ramped up to start the Bone Marrow Transplant stuff and here I am Done - a 2 time Cancer Survivor and a 2 time Bone Marrow recipient. I guess We just don't think about it or dwell on it - thank god - not healthy.

Well Love to all my supporters - & My Awesome Family and my great team of Doctors - couldn't of done it without ya'll.

Sunday Day 222

Top of the Morning to all your Buzzman Bloggers.

Had a great weekend so far - nice day yesterday relaxing and doing some work - until Stacy told me the Dryer wasn't working - so had to be the Maytag man yesterday a do a little dryer repair - replaced the heating coil.

I am feeling good and told I am looking good - I am not sure about that one, but thanks to all that say so.

The Dr appointments on Friday - well the first appointment was with a Cholesterol Dr and we spent a good bit with him and looks like he feels the high levels are drug induced - so we will check with him again in December to see how the levels are then. If I need to go on meds I will go on meds.

Labs where good - and "the" Dr appointment went very well - there was no waiting yesterday it was crazy. The Dr says doing good - looking good - I am off the preventative drug to prevent Graft VS Host - and so far going good. I do have some GVHD in the mouth so got a new drug mouth deal to help with that. I will start that Monday - just got to remember this one is a swish and spit and not like the others I have had which where swish and swallow. Yikes that will suck.
The PET scan sent like they always go and I will get the results of that hopefully by Tuesday - so will post something then instead of waiting till next Sunday.

Well headed to Walmart to get this knocked out so we can Watch some Football - Pro Today and ROLL TIDE!!!! For Yesterday

Have a great week all

Sunday Day 201

Wow - 201 days ago I had my transplant - Unreal that it has been that long sometimes it just seems like a month ago I was in Nashville.

Well happy Labor Day Weekend to All. I am so glad to have an extra day and don't have to go to work in the morning.

I am feeling really good - I played racquetball last Wednesday and it was great - I felt good and played so so. I was really tied last night maybe it was a rough week I went to bed before the Bama Game was over and I sleep till 10:30 AM - that is like un heard of for me, but I guess I needed it so I am OK with it. Well it is official College Football kicked off this weekend - GO SEC.

Have a good friend coming to Bhm this week to spend a few days here. Her birthday is Friday 9-11 and we are all going to Atlanta Saturday to see Creed - should be fun first music concert since my Rebirth.

Sunday Day 194

Happy Sunday To ALL

Light Rainy Day here in BHM.

I am doing very good - I was a little tired this past week not really sure why just was. Taylor is sick and has missed Thursday and Friday school - she is much better, but not sure if the chest cold has cleared up fully yet. Been taking her temp couple times a day to make sure no fever. I have been doing good with fighting off any issues - My nose has been a little runny, but no fever and no other symptoms so good there - thank God.

I didn't play racquetball at all last week as it was a week of Fantasy Football drafts so Monday, Wednesday Night where booked with those and so was Yesterday Morning. So I am planning on playing this week.

Don't go to Doctors till September 25th so still have 4 weeks before I go - this one will be a big day I am getting my 6 month PET scan - so looking for that to be cancer free like the others.

Well hope all is well with everyone. Have a great week

Sunday, August 23, 2009

Sunday Day 187

Happy Sunday to all you Buzzman Bloggers.

Doing really well - feeling really good too. I had a good week last week - played racquetball on Wednesday night went really good I felt awkward in the court so it was a good session of getting back into it. My head was moving good and fast but my feet struggled at times. HAHA

Already run the morning errands so going to kick back today and go over Fantasy Football stuff have 3 drafts this week. Monday Night, Wednesday Night and Saturday morning. The season is about to get rolling here in few more weeks.

I am in the process of populating info on a new web site that I was asked to help support and be a part of - www.navigatingcancer.com
I have allot of info to write - I am in process of writing the different sections and will be sending to my sister to edit and QC for me - so the site is not up yet I have a link to the beta site and allows me to populate all my info. http://beta.navigatingcancer.com/users/48

Taylore starts school tomorrow - back to reality - she is excited about getting back to school
Hope all is well with everyone in their lives.

Have a great week

Sunday Day 180

Happy Sunday to all

Had a really good week last week. Well hit the Dentist on Thursday and got had a root canal and some fillings filled so that was a real joy. Picked my Mom up at airport Thursday afternoon and we drove to Nashville. Dr appointment on Friday went great - they have taken me off my blood thinner - and Catherine my Nurse gave me thumbs up to play racquetball - so racquetball here we come - going to take it very slow and easy. They are also tapering off my Cyclosporine the preventative medicine for Graft Vs. Host - It is a very very slow tapper which will have me off by October so about 6 week taper. So we will see how that goes - hopefully no major rash this time - Dr said it could be something else and not a rash this time. My next appointment is set for September 25th so giving me 6 weeks in between appointments this time. I will have a PET scan on that day also - so we going to get another clear scan at the 6 month mark - SO I guess I need to say something I haven't said in awhile - "Kicking Cancer's Ass" or better Said "Kicked Cancer's Ass"

Well was nice to see some pre season football this weekend - getting all excited about the Fantasy football leagues I am playing in. I am the commissioner for the first time in a league with a bunch of coworkers - and playing in the family & friends league with my Dad again.

Taylor is winding down her last week before she starts school on Monday the 24th - she is excited to get back to school.

My dad and uncle Dr Roger will be in BHM on Monday for business so we will go out to dinner so that is cool they have business here now and come frequently.

Well hope everyone is doing good. Kids are all back to school and another Summer is over -bummer days as they say.

Sunday, August 9, 2009

Sunday Day 173

Well Happy Sunday to all - Day 173 - 10 days shy of being half a year since my Transplant - Golly geez sometimes it just seems like a month or so ago I was in Nashville - Vandy Hospital really dealing with all this.
Taylor is home from Colorado had a great trip with her Grand Parents - Thanks Nana & Papa...
School shoppinng today for supplies and new cloths - Tax free weekend in Bhm.

I am feeling really good - I am still just working and then doing nothing so I am sure that helps - I just need to keep remembering that I got beat up pretty bad and it takes time for the body to heal.

I go to the dentist on Thursday to deal with all the issues in my mouth from the Chemo and treatments - about 7 cavities to get filled and a couple crowns needed - dentist said wasn't as bad as what he expected so I guess that is good.
I also will pick up my Mom on Thursday and head to Nashville for this months Dr appointment. Have extra tests this Friday so going to be a long day.

Going to See Posion, Def Leppard, and Cheap Trick in Concert Tuesday Night - Should be a good Show
Well good week to All - Hope all is well with Everyone -

Sunday Day 159

Well Happy Sunday Buzzman Bloggers - I know we don't blog as much anymore - but I still enjoy posting once a week.

I am doing well today I am a little sore - I got out in the yard for about 2 hours yesterday morning before the sun - yes I was taking breaks so I didn't push myself to much - felt good to get some exercise of the arms running the weed eater and hedger - My arms are sore today and so is my back.

I did have a rough day last week where I had to leave work at 10 am and came home and was all VERY VERY Red in the Face - and broke out real bad with Rash all over my arms and back - I think I even had a panic attack, which I have never had one of those. Not sure what that was all about but it all good now.

I hooked up with an old high school friend from 25 years ago - Chris - we talked for about 45 minutes Friday and going to call him today - Such a long time ago and so much has happened in our lives - most of you know what in mine.

Taylor is going to Colorado with a friend this Saturday to spend a week with Nana & Papa - they should have a great time.
I get to see my Uncle this week too - he has business in BHM with my Dad so that will be cool.

Well Hope all is well with Everyone -

Happy Fourth of July - to ALL - A special shout out to our Military Men and Woman - Thank you so much for what you do.

Very low key fourth of July for us here in Birmingham, AL.
My Last PET scan on June 26 was CLEAN - NO CANCER

I am doing very well feeling very well. I am eating like crazy now so that is a good thing.
Working is going just fine been working pretty full days - so I need to watch that a little as my energy might slowly fad away since I am tapering off the steroid.
I haven't started playing Racquetball yet as the Dr wanted me to wait since my Blood thinner level is high. I am ok with that.

Looks like might get some Rain today to cool things off a little.
My next Dr appointment is set for Friday July 17th just blood work and a visit - no other tests. Hopefully after this one we will go to every 4 weeks - he has had me on every 3 weeks since the Graft VS. Host Rash I had.

Hope all is well with everyone

Well First Off Congragulations to My Bro Derek who completed his Iron Man Last Sunday - In his best time every - Amazing


Well Happy Birthday to My Dad - Who's Birthday was Yesterday - I got a chance to see him on Thursday Night and Friday - he was with me in Nashville for my PET Scan and Dr Appointments.

Well much better than last week the Graft VS. Host - major rash I got is 100% better and the Dr said I looked better than him - yeah right - kind words, but I am looking better.

I was going to play racquetball with my guys yesterday, but the Dr asked me not to since my INR (blood thinner level was high) they didn't want me to get hit with ball and cause internal bleeding and what not. I agreed for now, but do look forward to getting on court next weekend if the levels are in range.

I am eating really good now thanks to the Steroids - got to love them - I am on a tapper off of them and will be off by my next appointment, which is Friday July 17 - Day before my good Friend and Coworker Andrea ties the knot and gets married.

Well hope all is well with everyone in their worlds mine is good - just got to stay out of the Sun and Heat - which is OK cause it is hot here in Birmingham.

Sorry for missing some posts this past week - I got back to work and let it slip. I know lamb excuse but that is what I did.

I am doing pretty good - I think I pushed myself a little to much last week - I am going to take it a little slower.
I am going through a phase again where food is not appetizing to me so I am struggling with eating. I am working on Ensure's and Milkshakes so I can maintain a good calorie intake.

I have probally lost 5 lbs in this last week so I do need to get more calories in.
I know Mom - I am on it

Hope everyone has a good day

they don't understand about the shit that I've been through

maybe i forgot all the things id miss oh somehow i know there's more to life then this
i said it too many times and i still stand firm you get what you put in, and people get what deserve

I am thinking about backing off the posts and going to every other day? Thoughts anyone?

Sunday Day 75

How do you do? Happy Sunday - 75 days from Transplant - oh my lord times flies when you Kicking Cancer's Ass - Forgot to make the post this morning damn getting sloppy. Can't wait to see all my coworkers this Friday in BHM - My hair grew back very dark.

*** Forgot Creed is Back together and touring this summer****

Feeling Great rocking out to a great song The Who

Here are the Lyrics

When you here this sound a-comin',
Hear the drummers drumming,
I want you to join together with the band,
We don't move in any 'ticular direction,
And we don't make no collections,
I want you to join together with the band.
Do you really think I care,
What you read or what you wear,
I want you to join together with the band,
There's a million ways to laugh,
And every one's a path,
Come on and join together with the band.
Everybody join together,
I want you to join together,
Come on and join together with the band,
We need you to join together,
come on and join together,
Come on and join together with the band.
You don't have to play,
You can follow or lead the way,
I want you to join together with the band,
We don't know where we're going,
But the season's right for knowing,
I want you to join together with the band.
It's the singer not the song,
That makes the music move along,
I want you to join together with the band,
This is the biggest band you'll find,
It's as deep as it is wide,
Come on and join together with the band,
Hey hey hey hey hey hey, well everybody come on.
Come on and join, join together with the band,
We need you to join together,
everybody come on,
Hey hey hey, join together with the band.

*** Frank I know you know you song ***

Hope all had a good weekend I did - rained all weekend
