The Mexican Open

It has been a good week overall.

I am feeling good. My blood numbers are decent and my CEA has dropped from 3.8 to 3.1. The research manager credits Beta-Glucan, AHCC and Black Seed Oil.

I still have neuropathy in my fingers and toes, but there is no sign of hand/foot syndrome.

While I have dry mouth, the research manager has determined that my "mouth sores" are more likely caused by a sharp edge on a tooth than by the Xeloda. So, I am back to using Biotene rather than the Magic Mouth Wash.

I have determined that Xeloda does have some unusual side effects. My tennis has improved and I am looking good.

Here are the details.

I have been told by many that I look good, but on the weekend, I was told that I was handsome and the person making the comment said she would marry me if she wasn't already married.

The receptionist at the colon-hydrotherapy place declined my making a payment for my next ten sessions last week as she had already shut down her computer. I joked that I was surprised that she would not let me push her buttons that day. She told me I could push her buttons the next time I had a treatment.  She told me that she likes the way I goof around.

Now the big news. I have been told by many that my tennis has improved big time. I have played with one person fairly frequently lately and we virtually always win. I tell everyone that we are practicing for the Australian Open. Last Saturday, I was told that I was a wall on the tennis court. Hmmm.....maybe we are preparing for the Mexican Open!

We have survived Hurricane Michael with the possible exception that we could not play tennis this morning.

All in all, a good week. Thanks for your interest, prayers and support.
