Fill ‘er up, please

Today Sue and I went and got a refill for Chemo Sabe.  84 ml for $4300.00.  You think the price of gas is high.  That does include a weeks rental of Chemo sabe so I guess it isn’t too bad.  Good thing we have good insurance otherwise all you working stiffs would be footing the bill while we went on welfare. 

 I haven’t had nearly the fatigue with this cocktail as the last.  Also no flu-like symptoms, but a little more nausea.   I guess the trade off is good, especially if it does some good with slowing down the growth of the tumors.  We will find out more about that with the next CT scan in about 6 or 7 weeks.

All I have for now.

    No metric system, please. We need that translated into price per gallon!

    Glad to hear the side effects are minimal. Good thing you do have good insurance or that 4 grand would sure cut into your work allowance.

    IThanks for keeping us posted and keep up the good work. MB

    Bob —

    Thanks for the update! We are headed back to St. Louis today so although we expected to spend a lot for gas on our way, no way will it come close to your gas price! However, glad that your symptoms are better on this cocktail — if anyone didn’t know what we were talking about, they would find that a wierd statement!

    Take care. See you and Sue soon…..

    Skip,
    I have always found that the more expensive the “cocktail” the better! And you are worth every penny!
    Glad that you are feeling better…enjoy the warmer days.
    Hope to see you and Sue soon,
    Love,
    Mary Anne

    84 ml = 0.0221904523 US gallons.

    Looks like chemo sabe’s about $193,777.032656518/gal.

    Expensive tastes, but you get way better gas mileage than your car ;-)

    I’m glad Ryan translated that or I would have been forced to get out the calculator.
    Bob, you haven’t paid that much for a cocktail in years although I do remember those days.

    Thank goodness for insurance, which is the only reason I’m still working, except for the fact that I would kill Mike if I was home everyday as he now “works” out of the house.
