Chemo Treat #3 Day 4
Good morning all, I am usually not on here by day 4, so gonna take this as a good sign. Chemo went good. Much shorter this time. It only lasted 2 1/2 hours which was nice. Thursday I felt great. Went to work had a great day, then went to doc office and got shot. Had a good night was tired but fine. Woke up Friday morning bright and early at 4am. Felt ok, but light headed and nausea. Taste in my mouth is horrible this time. I have tried to eat, but nothing seems to taste ok. I am very glad I decided to stay home on Fridays after chemo. I think that is best. Was up on and off Friday and over all not too bad of a day other than taste in mouth. Slept in on Saturday until around 8am then got on skype with Terrie for 2 1/2 hours.. me and that girl can talk. Love being able to see her beautiful face even if we are 6 hours away from each other. Saturday was ok. Very tired and weak. Taste in my mouth getting worse. Brian made big batch of chili which smelt so good all day. Tried to eat some in the afternoon, but just didn't taste right. This part is driving me nuts as I am very hungry, but can't eat. The only thing that seems to taste half way descent is rice chex cereal so it looks like I will be eating a lot of that for now. Trying to stay up as much as I can as laying in the bed is already getting old. I sit out on the back porch quite a bit and just rest in hopes I will feel myself getting better. We are pretty much half way there now and if everything goes as planned will be done with this chemo stuff in no time. I can't wait for Christmas this year. I truly feel this is gonna be the best Christmas ever!!!! Well I am pretty tired and it's hard to type with the numbness in my hands so I will go for now. I will try to update you all either later today or later in the week. I love you all

Hey Sweetie. We can indeed talk, and I love every opportunity I get to chat with you. Seeing your smiling face is so comforting to me. It's not as great as being there in person so I can get a hug now and then, but it is very cool to be able to "sit across the table" from my best pal and hear your voice and see your expressions. I hate that you weren't able to eat the chili that Brian made. You were talking about how good it smelled when we were talking. Even got my tastebuds set to the point that I went to the store and bought the supplies to make myself a pot! Mostly, I'm sorry that you had to fight the thrush this time. Hope the doc can prevent that from happening again...ever! I'm praying that the last 3 treatments go off without a hitch....no more neuropathy, no more thrush, no yucky tastes that keep you from eating, and as few bad days as possible. Hang in there, Baby! I love you Di, tons & bunches!! Hope to see your pretty face on Skype real soon!! ~ Terrie
