The Day After – The hairy walrus washes ashore.
Some photographes I thought I had but didn’t. My buddy at work Nick Owens took these the day after surgery
You can see the rest at my flickr page.

Dr’s didn’t seem to think it’s anything other than an irritation from my upper teeth possibly. For the first time dealing with cancer I felt true sense of fear. I can have my jaw rebuilt with leg parts, a hole in my leg among other wounds and yet never felt anything like when I saw this small discolored bump on my cheek. It really brought me down to earth another peg I didn’t know was there.
For the last week Ive noticed this bump right above my incision in my mouth. As one friend stated ” It looks like you bit your cheek”. That would be awesome if I had lower teeth to bite my cheek with. I moved a monthly check up to Monday to have it looked at. My heart dropped though when I saw it and needless to say my head is now racing.

That
Been walking last few days feeling out how my leg feels after a couple of miles. I can get around ok but I notice my gate still favoring my leg. I’m trying to walk on the ball of my feet with the bad leg it still feels like I’m not sure whats going on. I feel myself leaning forward more as well. Needless to say allot of little motors are out of whack at the moment. This is all compounded by the fact the bottom of my foot starts to hurt as if it’s getting pounded harder than it is. Next day I feel fine so I don’t think I’m doing any harm , just need to keep working on it. About a month ago it was considerably more numb than it is now.

Kashi cereal kicks ass
I dig green tea
Bananas don’t taste like chicken.

Also took these photo’s since they remind me of my surgery photo of my jaw with the cancer in it.. Maybe you don’t see it but I do.

Cancer on the right
Notice that round shape over my last tooth.
I don’t know why this took me so long but in doing a search for cancer on flickr groups I didn’t find anything specific to oral cancer/head and neck. So I decided to make one.
If your a person who has a flickr account that has had this type of cancer feel free to post. It doesn’t have to be about the cancer could be anything that you like.
No more messing around with the wound Dr. in terms of the leg. I have no more to add than that.

Healed Leg Hole
Talked to Mary Jean on a nutrition plan to loose weight and get healthy by.. No I don’t consider it a diet or a temporary thing, it is for life. Life or nothing in my mind so that should start next week.

Why so serious
