Understand

You've been talkin' back and forth in rhymes, you don't listen
Doesn't matter what I say

On your way...Gone
One too many days

You've been walkin' back and forth it's time that your missin'
Gets more pathetic every day

On your way...Gone
One too many days

Yeah I'll rue the day, when the day would come to you, wonder who's that man?
You look at you and notice that you and me have the same hands
These hands, your hands, they are my hands, they are our hands...Understand?
Well I hope we never go there...Understand?

You've been lying in and out of the sunlight
Time and seasons sleeping on the floor

On your way...Gone
One too many days

You've been driving up and down the countryside
Rhyme and reason just flew out the door

On your way...Gone
One too many days

Yeah I'll rue the day, when the day would come to you, wonder who's that man?
You look at you and notice that you and me have the same hands
These hands, your hands, they are my hands, they are our hands...Understand?
Well I hope we never go there...Understand?

You've been talkin' back and forth in rhymes, you don't listen
Doesn't matter what I say

On your way...Gone
One too many days

Yeah I'll rue the day, when the day would come to you, wonder who's that man?
You look at you and notice that you and me have the same hands
These hands, your hands, they are my hands, they are our hands...Understand?
Well I hope we never go there...Understand?
I hope we never go there...Understand
I hope we never go there...Understand
I hope we never go there...Understand

New mets :(

[From my recent "List" post]

--snip--

Hi folks..

I just got some news. My neurologist just called me with my recent MRI results and the results are good and not-so-good.

The good news is that my previous radiation treatments have resulted in significant shrinkage of my remaining brain mets (The ones that popped up after my first SRS (Novalis - similar to Gamma Knife) ) So it appears that the Whole Brain Radiation that followed may have done me some good after all).

The bad news is that a new brain met was found. It's fairly small, just under 1 cm. But brain mets are never good news so I'm just a little freaked out.

I'm not sure of the exact location but this probably explains the increasingly severe headaches I've been getting. It is possible that I can get this new met zapped with more gamma knife so I'm crossing my fingers on that one.

I have an appt. with Dr. Gailani tomorrow to discuss the new brain met and the possible met that was recently seen on my spine. I have a bad feeling that this may spell the end of my treatment with Sutent (which had been working well for me) if I have to go back on steroids.. I believe I read that I can't do both at the same time.

God, I really hate those steroids...
