    …of IL2 into me right now.  It is really starting to kick my ass. My eyes are bleeding toxins and feel as if I had used napalm for eyedrops..

    My rear end is slowly weeping …………………….just leave it at that.

    All of my body seems to be sweating; but not like from heat, but rather like something inside of me is pissed off and is trying to tell me all is not well.

    And THEN, I get all of these shakes as if somebody dropped two tons of ice on me

    I know there is going to come a poiint and soon that my my chart will say " patient is confused", and IL2 will be sopped.

    I really think I have one more in me though.

    However what little witts of me says good night Irene until Friday.

    I never did date Irene, but I'm thinking ………………………….well I just do not know.

    Wi-F- is in ICU (where I am, but no cell service)

    What can I say?   This is my melanoma.

    Maybe I should not report all of this, but you know what?

    Nah, never mind.

    Cheers,

    Charlie S

      Thanks for the update Charlie.  I think you missed your calling.  You should have been a novelist because you certainly have a way with words.  Hell for all I know you might be a novelist.  Hang in there!

      That sounds just dreadful, Charlie!  I'm hoping one day this will all be just an unpleasant memory as you enjoy a long life.
