Chemoville

How was chemo #3? It was awful and hit harder than any of them have hit so far. I was sick, very sick and no meds seemed to help. It completely sucked. But I'm on the upswing. Today I have been awake since 11:30 am and not laid back down, not thrown up, not had chills/sweats, and my body stopped hurting. I'm to the fun stage now of no taste (even water is gross) and shaky and moody.

I am wondering if I wore myself out before the treatment. I always feel so good right before the dreaded injections, maybe I should rest more. At least the next one is after Christmas and before New Year's. That's ok, not a big NYE fan anyway!

Someone asked me "how would you sum up Chemo". It SUCKS, that's how I would sum it up, yea you can do it and yea you survive but it just takes these HUGE chunks of reality out of your life and it is miserable. Ok, I'll try and stop whining now..........

The house is ready, bring on Christmas, today we're going to make my favorite gingerbread houses with the boys. We've done this for a while now and it's fun and it makes me smile. It's windy and rainy and humid outside, so staying inside is easy. I look foward to next week where I start to re-enter life and the world.

Thank you for checking on me and emailing me and sending me cards and funny things, even if I don't respond BELIEVE me I'm very of them!!!
