I smell like chemotherapy. I can’t really describe it but the closest I can think of is old man smell. It seeps out of my pours, is on my breath, in my urine, my feces, and my flatulence. It’s always there to remind me. I can’t wait until it’s gone.
Speaking of old men, and the old in general, they make up most of the people I meet in the infusion room and I think they’re all tough as nails. I’m only 39 and these people are going through the same if not worse than I am yet they’re 60, 70, 80 or more. And they all most likely have more complications due to their age (other diseases besides cancer). Again, I’m glad to be doing this now, when I’m young and strong and otherwise healthy. Oh I hope this is a trade-off. Get it now so I don’t have to get it later. That would be nice.
