Mayo angiogram and selfie over Himalayan Place with Hannah

March 8, 2024

Alright, I just succeeded in getting the photos in here, and it was hard. First I’ve got some photos from when I went down to Mayo to get an angiogram. In a way, during the procedure I kind of felt like I might be beginning to care about life again. I guess that means that all seriously depressed people need to go through an intense cancer treatment. There is clearly no other solution, That also made my night spent with Hannah quite a bit better too. We went out to the Himalayan Restaurant and we ate some mix of food that Hannah said was quite good. I kind of feel like not being able to taste things or experience the joy of food at all might be a side effect from the chemo I went through today.... and obviously it proves that I’ll just never be happy again. 

Ok, I’ll just leave this very partially done and write the rest tomorrow when I’m awake better than I am now.

On this day, which I barely wrote about, I went to Mayo Clinic and got another round of their targeted chemo. The procedure didn’t hurt at all even though they couldn’t use their full dose of pain meds because I’d had some food. I did my meds at 7:08 am with some olive oil and an Atkins shake that has 13g fat. The Atkins shake was the problem for the sedation pain med stuff. Afterwards, Hannah and I went to Himalayan Restaurant. We both got the mango lassie drink, which had yogurt and was nonalcoholic. I also showed Hannah my notebook from 2020 that has “contacts” on the cover, but is really more of an old diary. It’s funny that it’s the exact size of all the notebooks I use to take daily notes now, but it’s from 2020-2021.
