New Age terrorists develop homeopathic bomb

‘It was only a matter of time before these people got hold of the material that they needed to make these bombs,’ said former UN weapons inspector, Hans Blix, ‘The world is a much more dangerous place with the advent of these Weapons of Mass Dilution.’

Running

I ran a half-mile today. The first quarter-mile went effortlessly. The second quarter-mile revealed my age and lack of conditioning.

Now I have a base-line. Soon it will be 1 mile, then 2, then 5. I think I will stop at 5. I don't want to mess up my back.

I can't believe I'm writing this. A month ago, I was thinking that running, if I could ever do it again, would not happen until Autumn. Wow. God is good!

Bye Bye, Lovenox

As of today, no more "blood thinner" for me. Twice-a-day injections of Lovenox are now a thing of the past.

I'm really going to miss giving myself injections. However, I will step up and gladly make the sacrifice!

Swelling Down

The swelling in my right leg is getting much better. It is almost gone. I can walk 90% normally now, and -- let me tell you -- that is a big, big, BIG improvement over dragging my right leg around behind me.

Based on the recent progress, I will probably be free of any swelling by the first week in July, which is the 1st anniversary of my cancer diagnosis.

Swelling is bad. God is good. Praise Him for allowing me to feel good!

Quote of the Day, #2

"Tip to younger readers as a lesson about life: People who tell you that they are humble aren't. People who brag that they are generous aren't. People who boast of how honest they are - lock up your wallet. And finally (perhaps a shocking thing for me to say), whenever a local business advertises that it runs according to Christian principles, I keep looking. People who announce how Christian they are often the biggest cheats around."

"I have talked to therapists who feel they are superhuman yet see it as an asset."

Moving well

I am doing 4 to 6 mile walks most evenings. I stop every now and then to do push-ups along the route. I have done as few as 50 and as many as 80 push-ups during these hour to hour-and-a-half walks.

Not bad for an old man!

Chemo complete!

Chemotherapy went off without a hitch on Thursday. It seemed to take all day.

No ill effects as of yet. The White Blood Cell count usually dives within a week. However, the last chemo didn't produce much of an ill effect. I hope this will make two uneventful treatments in a row!
