I thought visitors to my blog would be interested in my work. This is a picture of the Adam Aircraft A-700. I work as a Materials and Processes Engineer which basically means that I decide what materials are used for each part, and I also help solve processing issues that arise during manufacturing of the aircraft. To determine what materials to use, I coordinate tests that determine the strength and other critical properties of the materials. That is my job in a nutshell.
As an update, I am still doing pretty well, but I had a rough week. I had to rely on anti-nausea pills a few times, which is more frequent than after previous chemo treatments. I also experienced a lot of bone pain as a side effect of the white blood cell booster. My fatigue is still the hardest to cope with, and most noticeable is the uncontrolled shaking that I experience in my muscles. I feel shaking in my legs when going up and down stairs, shaking in my arms and hands when doing tasks that require a lot of coordination or strength, and I even hear it in my voice at times. But all things considered, I am doing very well and my chemo nurses have been impressed.
Tomorrow (Thursday) I will have my fourth chemo treatment.

That is pretty sweet. So when the plane crashes we know who to blame. Just remember when you need someone to manage your money you come find me.
