Vince,
These photos are much more graphic than the last set, certainly not pretty, and the skin thing seems to make your face look fat. I hope it's the meds, not your weight that's doing that. Keep fighting the battle - the end is coming.

Day 43 and a lot of swelling.

Sometimes in the morning for the past two weeks I could not open my eyes because of the swelling.

Had to soak my face in a lukewarm towel to pry my eyelashes apart...

Tried hard not to cry.

My cracked and swollen lips were the worst.

In the end I had to sleep on a towel wrapped around my pillow to the keep blood and pus off the sheets.

I gained a lot of weight eating and drinking as a way to find comfort and as a form of displacement activity.

The nausea I am sufering now will take care of pat of that!

Lots of throwing up thses days.

If you don't hear much from me it will be because i am resting and trying to get my srentgh back.

Thanks for the kind wordd of support and encouragement.

They mean a great deal.
