where are all the updates lately? Its been a month!

Hey Anonymous, that's a fair question, so I figured that one deserved an honest answer. I've been somewhat busy for the last month, and I'll continue to be pretty busy for a while. Although "busy" is somewhat misleading. I've been asleep a good portion of the last couple of weeks, and before that, I was running back and forth to UCSF medical center, to see an oncologist, and my neurosurgeon. In May, I'll be back up there for a while, getting another open craniotomy, so they can remove another tumor from my brain. This one's quite a bit bigger than my original one, and there's talk about chemotherapy and radiation and all kinds of other fun things, including experimental treatment afterward, which *should* prevent another one from returning a third time, or so we all hope.

But that would by why there haven't been any postings, or any updates. When I got hope, I've been withdrawing from school, seeing some other doctors here, and then sleeping...a lot. To a certain amount it was just knowing what was going to be coming, and that sort of thing, and the rest is that the headaches have been getting worse, and it's been keeping me asleep more than awake. I get tired incredibly easily, and somewhat brain-foggy recently.

I know more this time, about how things will go when I wake up after surgery, so I'm keeping a journal, to tell me who I am, and to tell me the people I care about. Because I know they'll be working in the same region, it's a good chance, they'll erase the last six years, the same way they erased my earlier memories. Seemed prudent to give myself something to work with, when I wake up.

So, there you go, this is what's been going on with me...what's been going on with the rest of the Internet who follow my blog?
