Seconds away, Round 2

This is a heavyweight contest, extending to 12 rounds of chemotherapy two weeks apart. Round 2 started today - about four hours in hospital - prep, blood test, glucose drip, two hours chemo drip (what a doctor friend describes as Toxin A), followed by hooking up to a bottle of toxin B which is placed in a bum bag so that I carry it with me over the following 48 hours. All administered via a PICC line, 1mm plastic tube inserted in the upper arm, and extending 46cm through the veins towards the heart. Put an interchangeable plug on the end, strap it on tight, and I'm permanently ready for action!! The use of the term 'therapy' a bit of a misnomer I fear - more like chemical warfare.
