Hi everyone ! I started today and I'm tremendously happy about it. Thank you for making it happen guys, I'm feeling very confident.
The side effects are tough for sure. I'm feeling exceedingly cold and nauseous but that's nothing compared to the despair.
Today was a national holiday so hospital was a little empty and the nurses were very kind. Brought a Murakami book and the 3DS Lil Peanut Brotha sent me. I'm sure this is going to be a long night but as mentionned before I don't feel alone and am ready for anything that may come.
The money BobLobLaw wired to my bank account also came through without problems. Very grateful for the risks he has taken for my sake.

Fantastic! Stay strong and get better. We're all behind you in this!
Glad to hear things are going well. Hopefully your night won't be as long as you expect, and the side effects won't be too bad. You've got this!
So happy
So happy for you my friend. Stay positive. Stay strong. You are in my prayers.

Many thanks everyone. Glad to have this place.
Book is The wind up bird chronicle, got through a 100 pages or so and really like it so far. On the 3DS I've been playing bravely default.
I'm very happy that you started the treatment and that you have such a positive attitude, this is very important!
BTW, if you need advices about games for the 3DS feel free to ask!
Good choices. Murakami got me through a hospital stay as well once - his dream like style goes nicely with being medicated ;)
Hope all goes with the treatment, bud! I'm so glad the people here were able to help in some way, and we give you love as you face the future.
Fantastic news! I know it's going to be rough, but keep on fighting man. Thousands of people are supporting you and wishing for a speedy recovery!
Sea Band makes a ginger gum for nausea due to chemo/pregnancy/travel/anything. I use it basically every day and would be happy to send a bunch your way.
As a huge Arrested Development fan, it amuses me to no end that BobLobLaw wired you the money. It just doesn't seem like something he'd do. He's a terrible lawyer. XD
Anyway, I'm elated that you got your first treatment, and I'm sending all the positive vibes and energy your way. Just focus on getting better. I'll probably donate again this weekend after I sort out my bills. Keep up the good fight!
Just think about all of us here when you're feeling awful from the treatment. Stay strong. You can do it.
I agree with people on Ginger for Nausea.
My understanding is that these are an international candy, and are also delicious. I have a box full of them for people trying VR for the first time. I've seen it help tremendously.
