The Machine Goes Chuga

So I was up at providence in Portland getting the Yervoy treatment sitting in a comfy chair and looking out a window with a nice view - what a difference from the IL2 therapy.  And apparently they were one of the places key in the development of this medication.  The name was based on "your voyage" which seems a little silly since I'm wasn't going anywhere for a few hours.  Maybe the sailboat side effect can finally show up.

A different nursing staff administers the Yervoy (Ipi) and the vibe is quite different since the treatment isn't similar but it's cool to be at the place where this stuff was developed.  

I have to thank my cousins and good friend Mary for the care packages they sent.  It inspired me to get a juicer and start pulverizing all the natural goodness out of a variety of fruits and veggies.  We even found orange and purple cauliflower which might be best not juiced since there isn't much liquid in them... Lol but they have way more vitamins and antioxidants than regular cauliflower.

The machine going chuga was the regulator pushing the Ipi (my liquid voyage... Usually you'd expect tequila or jaeger to be involved in that).  Perhaps it should have a name.  Bob seems to come to mind so there you have it.

The previous post's walking is going well and I expect to keep it up.  It would be amazing to actually get out and do some hiking once my legs are ready to do the up and downhill thing a bit better.  

Enough for now - back to looking at my planet and star apps .  The iPad Ki gave me for our 2 year anniversary is amazing for the kid still buried in me who used to pour over universe books and stare at the clear night sky.
