Today was the day about my right (bad) eye’s surgery result. Getting up in the morning I noticed that my left (good) eye’s vision was almost back to 100%, by the time we arrived at the clinic it was back to what it was before. Since the bad eye was covered up and therefore I was not able to get an idea was it fix or not. I had to wait until my appointment.

2020-07-01 Living With Cancer – Day 1813
Today was a interesting and good day, health-wise my pain level stayed around three/two peaking only a few times to four/three. The low level is due to sitting in the car for 4 hours and exam rooms for another 1 1/2 hours. Getting home I did start moving around when ever I could to make up for the earlier sitting.
2020-06-24 Living With Cancer – Day 1806
Today was a busy day, health-wise my ‘normal’ pain and activity-wise my ‘normal’ levels were all over the board, low as 3/2 and as high as 5/4. To report when was what level for how long, would be to complex and most likely not very accurate.

Summary
Today was another busy day having to go to SF for a special doctor appointment to look after my eye and still finding time to do some shopping and working on my today’s blog entry. Health-wise it was not too bad my shoulder and back pain was at a very low level because I was sitting for most of the day, however, getting up and walking did raise the levels very high. Overall it was a good day.

Summary
Today was a bad day. My pain levels were high OK for most of the day, taking in to account the somewhat long walks within the eye clinic. The bad part was the lack of activities because of the 4 hours of travel time and the aftereffect of dilation.

Today was a busy but good day. My pain levels were low after getting up but increased during the activities in preparation for our trip to UCSF. The levels got a bit lower during the drive, but increased during the appointment time and have stayed at a higher level for the rest of the day.

Waking Up – 07:21:21 PST, 45°F Possible Drizzle, Antioch, CA
I got up early since I have a Blood Draw appointment at 8:30 followed by my 9:00 Chemo Tech. The later is because I am starting a new treatment, which is “Pill” based and called ‘Venclexta’. The plan is to start the treatment today, assuming no objection from the doctors.

A New Day
Today started at 6:00 with my vitals being taken and my blood being drawn. Results became available at 6:30, with the numbers holding.
I did some cleanup of my overnight devices, iPad, iPhone, and Laptop, ready for use during the day.
It’s 7:15, ready for my 1st walk, on return my breakfast should arrive soon. Got 4 walks around the ward today within 15 minutes. After my return, I cleaned up my bed station, started checking my mail, still a lot of ads for the last day of Thanksgiving and tomorrow’s Cyber Monday. Last but not, resting and waiting for my breakfast.

It is about 6:30 and the night nurse got ready for me to start the day. After taking my vitals I am getting my morning medication. Around 7:00 my FentaNYL patches were changed as well.
Shortly afterward my breakfast arrived, which was very good. Dianne and I went after it for a walk around the ward.
