Walking The Thin Man

In May 2005, I learned that I had developed amyloidosis, a rare protein folding disease. This is my story.

Day + 7, From Tony

Well, I'm not 'back from the dead' yet, but I wanted to give a short post. The chemo has still affected my energy, and most importantly my ability to swallow. I have to eat (suck) everything from a straw. Also, the edema increases, making it difficult to walk.

However, I am going off of several drugs which has caused me a lot of drugginess lately. I hope to be more myself by this weekend. Thank you to everyone for your complements, and to Walter for filling in admiralably.
