Every year, there is a chance this will be my last year to cheer on BYU in person. I have neuropathy in both feet, you are right, it hurts. Many, though not all weekends, I have late onset diarrhea from the chemo a few days before. I consume a pair of Imodium every hour the day of the game and often the day before to keep it under control, eventually, what must come out comes out, I just don't want it to be at the game.
I'm not saying I'm in more discomfort or less than you, and I hope you are and stay NED for a long, long, time. But for those of us who never know if this season will be our last, we do what we can to make every game we can, though I might draw an exception for Savannah State if the weather's REALLY cruddy. Being there for Texas last year almost made my life complete, though I'd ticked about having to in all probability never see the Yewts get the beatdown they deserve in my mortality.
