18 Jan 2021 (Evening)

Overall, today I felt the best (physically) in quite a while.  Seem to have much more energy and stamina.  So much so, I walked a little over 2.5 miles with an average pace of 17:42 per mile (after some light weight training).  Continued with juice concoction and little to no bleeding (no bright light red).  Managed to get some more work done on a backyard bed as well as picked up dog waste.  Salad for lunch with a peanut butter sandwich followed by a plant-based pot pie plus salad for dinner.  Trying to add more regular food and hopefully some weight.  Finished off 2.5 bottles of juice today as well. Dawn prepared enough vegetables to juice for another 2 days of juice once processed through juicer.  



Tomorrow I travel to UAB for my Guardant360 blood test.  Hope parking works well, but no guarantees.

What?!?  I didn't quite understand and said I'm ready for more chemo ... let's kill this thing inside me.  He explained no and that chemo was no longer ne...

Not doing well documenting my journey. Hope I can get fixed. Another day of low 20s 🥶 Decided it was time to bring a bike out with the goal of riding very soon! Too cold and had to bring out the heat lamps on Monday and Tuesday night.  Got down to at least 19°F. Worked a little outside.   Achieved plenty of walking and trainer miles this week.  Now time to rest in preparation for Friday's infusion therapy.  That's all for now. Anxiety creeping in.
