finally, back to normal, whatever that was!

I'm proud to say that my last chemo therapy treatment for lymphoma occurred on February 2, 2010, and that I'm still here to tell you about my experience, for which I thank God.

I'm a skinnier version of my old self and I lost most of what little hair I had, but the weight loss is not regrettable and the hair is beginning to come back.

I'm back at work on a full-time basis. I'm glad to have a job to go back to, doing work I enjoy with people I enjoy working with.

I still have an issue with a kidney but it is not terribly serious and I will spare you the details.

I notice that every sentence in this blog entry begins with "I." I'm not that self-centered. I'll go back to my old form, taking shots at politicians and rooting for the Rays baseball team, beginning with the next entry.
