But I did get out yesterday for a walk to the post office and the fresh air and sunshine felt terrific.
On January 7th, 2008 I received a diagnosis of stage 4 esophageal cancer following an endoscopy that I had scheduled to investigate intermittent difficulty I had been having with swallowing food. Since then I have had numerous chemotherapy treatments and multiple remission/recurrence scenarios. This blog is so that friends and family can follow along as I fight this battle.

Sunday, April 19th
The weather this weekend was very much a tease as I wanted to get on my bike so badly. But, I opted for the group hug option yesterday morning when Amy and I stopped at Washington's Crossing State Park to say hello to the two Mentschen that were riding yesterday. It was nice to see Dan Nies and Stephanie Tobler but I know that my decision to not ride was the right one. The one side affect that hits me pretty firmly with each treatment cycle is the tingling in my hands/feet and that is accompanied with general muscle tightness in my calves. This makes even walking a bit of a chore for the first 3-4 days of each cycle.
