Tuesday, April 23 - We had a fabulous weekend. Ann's shower was a huge success and it was sooooo good to see family. After the shower, I was pretty exhausted so rested while Dane, Adam and Ann tended to the yard work. It was a beautiful day.
On Sunday we went into St. Louis and visited with our friend Joe from Busch Stadium and got some pictures on the field and a inside tour. Also hit up the Arch and Forest Park (I stayed in the car) for more photos. It was good to get home as the nausea was starting to set in and I was really tired.
Yesterday (Monday) was day 4 after chemo and the day I felt the worse. Nausea and sleepy much of the day so took a lot of catnaps. It was a beautiful day weather wise so I took a walk around the yard and sat outside for a while. It felt good. I was afraid I wouldn't sleep Monday night, but no problem there. I'm thinking I may have overdone it just a bit.
Today, other than the weather, was much better. I am again staying ahead of the nausea by taking my meds and eating often as well as staying hydrated. I still feel fatigued, but was told that it was cumulative for many as they go through chemo so am assuming that is what is going on plus the fact that it is so dreary out.
