The fatigue from radiation seems to have let up a little bit this week. Still have some. But not as bad a last week.

However, I did start losing my my hair this week. It started coming out in huge clumps over the last 3 days. It’s going fast. Seems to be only in locations where the radiation is focused on so it’s a bit patchy. I will probably shave my head soon, but I want to wait a little bit longer because I’m a little hesitant to shave around the incision from surgery. Especially since it’s so long. It’s like a 12-13 inches of stitches on my head.

But in the meantime, I turned into a hat guy! The Puppet Nerd hats @camgarrity designed for me came in just in time and I LOVE the way they came out. I’ll have a like in the comments if you want one too. We got a few different styles for the family.

I was gifted a few hats too. More pictures coming soon!!!

Got to see @randyfeltface live @heliumcomedybuf yesterday too! It was INCREDIBLE! Definitely check it out and look up his tour dates! #puppetnerd #hatdesigns #cancer

Today is pretty surreal. Missing the first day of school as I’m heading into the 3rd week of radiation treatment. It’s so strange to physically not be able to do what I mentally feel like I can do.

This would have been day one of year 10 for me as an Art Teacher. I can’t wait to come back once I am able to. Even though it’s been 2 months of discovery and going through this, there is still so much we are still figuring out and unfortunately getting new side effects from treatments. Hoping they are temporary, but have been noticing some effects on eye focus and vision. Nothing major, but noticeable.

So grateful for all the support from my school and community. Love seeing all the pictures today. ❤️❤️❤️ #puppetnerd #artteacher #backtoschool

Tomorrow will finish up my second week of 6 weeks

Tomorrow will finish up my second week of 6 weeks of Chemo and radiation treatment. Doing okay. Mostly fatigued from Chemo and Radiation. Just trying to figure out a new normal energy wise. Legs are heavy, knees hurt. Moving is exhausting. Apparently the effects are cumulative so we will see how the effects change as the weeks go by. So hopefully it’s doesn’t get too much worse. I guess for some people it levels off at some point. That’s what I’m hoping.

At this point I’m mostly just a little paranoid about seizures. I was hoping treatment would lower the risk. But apparently I’m at higher risk for seizures during treatment as it agitates that area.

Over all things are going okay! Trying to make accommodations to my shop to keep making art.

At this point, Most of the swelling is down from surgery and my face is mostly healed from the fall off the second seizure. Starting to look pretty normal ish again, which is exciting! But still need to take it really easy. Energy is low, not allowed to lift more than 5 pounds until I’m evaluated again. Had some unusual leg pains which seem to have gone away. Hopefully it was a fluke.

I start chemo and radiation on Monday. Supposedly, these are likely to cause nausea energy loss for the first few weeks. Though we are trying to take precaution to mitigate it. So I’ll be taking easy for quite a while.

So grateful for everyone’s support and messages. I have been trying to get back to as many people as possible. So I am sorry for delays, though I know you all understand. Thank you for your patience. ❤️❤️❤️ Doctor puppet 2017 build. #puppetnerd

Just about to start some of my own OT with my little Snoof here. ❤️❤️

Day 3 of recovery is definitely tougher so far. I’m still in high spirits. But I have a lot more post surgery swelling. My face is puffy, which is just uncomfortable especially around my eyes.

I had a moment where my left side went numb for a little bit which was scary. But doctors are saying it’s not uncommon to see these sorts of effects for the next 3 days. They have been monitoring me closely. #puppetnerd #snoofsoftheworld

So far things seem to have gone as good as they possibly could have. As effects of surgery ware off from yesterday, I am definitely feeling it more today and pretty exhausted.

They were able to get about half of the tumor out. I did have another seizure during surgery, which was terrifying. (I ended up needing to be conscious for brain surgery😳) But I guess that’s not uncommon for the nature of the procedure and my specific condition.

I meet with Physical Therapy today, and they already have me on my feet! #puppetnerd

Update.

Adam got to see his kids today. They have been in California staying with with his parents for the past few weeks.

He is so excited to be together again as a family and they get to celebrate Fred’s 3rd birthday the day before Adam’s surgery.

Ernie is enjoying a slice of pizza. 😂

We are beyond grateful for the love, support, kindness and messages we have received.
