Not a great blogger!

Hey all,

I know that it has been a long time since my last entry and I am sorry about that.  I wish I could say that it is because of my health but that would be a lie.  I am just not a good blogger.  I wish that I was more like my father-in-law Dave, he has mad blogging skills.

I can say that these past several weeks have been a roller coaster.  I was put on this new medication to help my appetite and it did everything but that.  I started to be very emotional, almost crying when talking about mundane subjects, commercials, or just random subjects.  I though I was going crazy!  On top of that I started gagging when eating.  It turned out my new medication was progesterone...I was getting women's hormones.  I was relieved because I wasn't going crazy and now I have empathy when my wife gets all emotional over a commercial or movie.   Needless to say I am off that now.

On top of that, I have been sleeping horribly the past couple of weeks.  I tell you what, not sleeping for several days really takes everything out of you.  Now they have me on better pain meds at night that will hopefully solve this problem.  I just started, and already feel better.

Thank you for all your prayers and well wishes.  I need both of them.  Through the ups and downs, I know that my friends and family are there for me.  My wife and daughter have been so awesome.  I know that I could not do this without them.

Until next time,

Cheers!
