Right now … early June, my memory sucks. I wish I could tell you the reason – but I don’t exactly know. My the most probable cause is my cancer … but the thing about having brain cancer and having radiation and taking chemo pills is you don’t’ know if that is because of that or the swelling. And do I have swelling, and if so is that because of my cancer or the radiation there are giving me? Confused yet …?
 Me too!
