Ahhh, it feels good to have a new president. Today was really cool getting to witness history and being apart of it. Seeing Obama sworn in was just as pleasant as voting for him :). Hopefully American will "pick itself up and and dust off" cause we really need to in every aspect, we've already done so by putting the right man in office! Woohoo!
Speaking of new... I get new cells soon! I'm not sure the exact date of my transplant but it's going to be soon since I'm not doing the second round of chemo anymore. I was on youtube last night looking at people's stories and experiences with BMTs... a lot of them weren't too pleasant... actually none of them were too pleasant. Some complained a lot about the nausea and the fatigue, some developed CGVHD(chronic graft vs. host disease). But every one's different so I can't really go off of their stories, which sucks because I have no idea of what to expect and I want answers that my doctors can't give me. All I know is that I don't think I can handle anymore vomiting, I'm seriously traumatized vomiting so much haha. But nonetheless I'm still excited just to know that the BMT will decrease the chances of my cancer coming back again, and I think that's worth all the nausea and vomiting in the world. I have a good feeling about it too (I'm not sure if it's my naivety or optimism or maybe a combination? lol). I was debating on whether or not I should set up video diaries but I figured that no one wants to see my face and bald head (which is growing back some hair!!! yayyyy!!!). I don't know maybe when I start my transplant. It's not like anyone reads this or will even watch my videos, but it would be for me to look back and say "heyyyy! I looked pretty good with no hair!"
Anyway, I'm going to catch up on some school work... or just watch some junky TV :p
