Can't sleep. The pain is intractable against my current arsenal of drugs. I naively thought that my body would accustom itself to the relentless aches, pressures, throbbing and tenderness. The sternal and right shoulder pain predominate but the back of my neck is slowly but surely manifesting itself. I can now completely understand why people become addicted to pain killers and why others would choose to euthanize themselves. I'm in a fine mood to give Dr. Kevorkian a call. This is sheer torture.
I suppose I could take some opiates to relieve the pain but that would bring on a bout of nausea. The mere notion is enough to make me want to retch.
So here I am. In pain and unable to sleep. So I blog to take my mind off the physical sensations wrought by cancer. If only I could sleep my way to oblivion.
