MRI report back. No cancer in my brain. Big relief.

Halfway through radiation on right lung. Chemo next.

Last time chemo took my hair and eyebrows. It grew back. sort of.

Radiation over. That didn't hurt.

Chemo started. That does.

I think I am going to escape again.

Haven't shaved in almost four months. A few white whiskers are starting to regrow on my chin.
Eyebrows coming back. Hair (?)

I've lost another ten pounds. This could work out.

PET scan, no change.

Only on Keytruda now. Was looking for some small improvement, didn't happen.
