Sorry to hear that the chemo is getting you down. Do you have two more *sessions* or two more whole courses of treatment? Maybe I'll come up to visit you before you head back to CA. You're a lot closer to me here.

Sorry about the chemo man. Just remember, there is always the possibility of a genetic mutation that could give you superpowers, so the suffering may be worth it.

Can't wait til you come back up here, we'sa gonna have fun!

Your chemo ickiness makes me super sad :( I hope it eases up on you soon.

YaY for Phillies watching, that had to be awesome to see their ring ceremony. I'm glad you got to see.

Why do you have to wait to see people's shins? That seems weird to me.
