MM Update

Okay, I know this is quite late for a new year update. On the other hand, each day is a new lease of life worth celebrating - it just happens that yours truly did not know what to say. Before today.

Well, you know that I got back home from my Philippine trip not quite refreshed, to put it nicely. All my cbc, wbc, platelet, neutrophils, etc. were down, so I was taken off meds for a couple of months. January I had a checkup and my oncologist had to change my drug. Started it January 12. So far, so good, less side effects although of course I don't know how much havoc it is causing inside. But still.

The downside is that this in a weekly IV infusion so I have to travel and be absent from work to get it. But after all I have gone through, a weekly trip to Baltimore is actually a great way to get out and update my medical knowledge!

Am hanging in there! As my friend who was born and raised in the heart of Cebu puts it, "Payts lang gyud bai!" (Keep fighting!)

Whatever your challenges are, let me say this to you, "Payts lang gyud bai!"

Napapatingin-tingin lang sa mga pinapanood ng anak ko na adik yata sa Korean telenovela, hehehe. Sinong mag aakala na magiging idol natin mga Korean these days. Noon, kapag sinabi ng Nanay ko na sobrang bilog ang mukha ko, para akong Koreana, medyo masama loob ko, now, oki doki doc na :D

I got addicted really bad, but am out of it now. Will post my "Confessions' later.
