Met with some of the therapists and one of them suggested that perhaps it's time for him to stop the chemo and go for being comfortable during the final days.
My wife is actually the power of attorney for my uncle. We don't know why he did that, but she is more compassionate than I am. Unless he's pissed her off. Then I'm more compassionate.
Overall, he's a very good guy, but when he's not feeling well, I don't think he likes the way females talk to him and present themselves to him. (In my own personal dictionary, "blowing sunshine up a person's ass, in the face of danger".)
I on the other hand, would rather deal with a female than a male as long as the woman doesn't get too pissed with my cursing.
Whilst typing up this entry, my uncle called me to confirm, again, that I am picking him up around 1:00 PM. today.
It is a good thing that I woke up around 4:00 AM, started at 4:30 AM, and will stop around 12:45 PM.
Pretty darn close to 8 hours or so of work.
For the appointment I took him to at 9:00 AM, we saw his doctor, who agreed that his mental state/delusions were caused by the Adavan, and took him off of that drug and put him on another one.
Also increased his usage/schedule of Milk of Magnesia. He's on some pretty tough opioids, which gives him a hell of a tough shit.
Perhaps, the toilet paper brand should be John Wayne Toilet Paper... You know.. It's rough, tough and doesn't take any shit from any man.
I suppose I could start writing commercials again... Goofy ones, I used to do that with friends while in the 9th grade, and it was a blast. We even had a printed magazine we wrote up and passed around the school. Although, these days, the magazine would be considered very racist and improper... Despite that the jokes were written by an individual of each ethnicity... It was fair as far as we saw it. Anyhow, we had a blast doing it.
Luckily for me, I remembered to buy some damn ice cream on the way home... My headache could've and should've been different if I had the ice cream... I don't know why, but I think the milk or other stuff in the ice cream helps, not just being cold alone. This will remain a mystery...
Speaking of ice cream, I'm going to stop and get some.
Hasta La Vista, Baby
