1 June 2021

 

     I went in for radiation today.  Dr. Bradley examined me, and, after a consultation with Dr. Kenkre, it was decided to place me on a steroid.  I am losing strength in my right shoulder and have increased pain. 

     We switched from cancer treatment to palliative care today.  If they had not treated the inflammation in the right shoulder with the steroids, effectively killing off any CAR T-cells that may still have been fighting the cancer, I would have lost use of that arm and shoulder permanently due to the compression of the nerves from the tumorous mass in the neck. The CAR T-cell therapy was a failure.

     My days are numbered.

     I still ran five miles after returning to the prison.  I do not know how long I will be able to continue this.  I am running on empty with a lot of pain all the time.
