Today is my first break from having my head completely bathed with radiation, and I guess it's going to take some time for the swoozy ringing to chill out. My balance is pretty off, so it's mostly bed rest and such. Only hurled once... Hopefully that will be isolated, as it was brought on by moving my head to lay down too quickly.
The other news, is that Ki and I were approved for a house in Corvallis, and will be trying to get over there in the coming days. With the house in Talent (so or) being mostly ready after a long weekend last week, Ki will be doing some long weekends with the help of our extremely generous and loving friends to finish packing and bringing our things up north. The apt here in Albany just isn't set up ideally for me to recover as well as for both our cohabitation needs.
My scalp is starting to really show the effects of the radiation, and we expect my hair to be gone for a while in the coming weeks. Hardly a big deal in the scheme of things. What I'm really looking forward to after my balance returns, is for the ringing in my ears to stop. It sounds like a bad use of a ring modulator being applied to what I hear, and if I didn't like it in old Tony Iommi guitar solos, I hardly care for it now. Imagine, well...any song being doubled with a cracked set of Caribbean steel drums... Lovely.
Well here's to good night's sleep once I get my head down, and increased mobility.
Spoken like a true Musician :)
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you were able to finish your treatments in Portland and make it back home.
Well, bald is beautiful and it just comes to some of us with age - but you get to try in on for size a bit early; hair is overrated anyway (says the guy that is starting to lose his!)
So happy to hear that it's over. And approval for a new house! That is very exciting. Can't wait to see where your new digs are. I hope you are getting some good rest. :)
ReplyDeleteMuch love!
