April 1 - On Thursday evening, I had a great surprise. Adam & Ann showed up at the door around 9:30 p.m. Dane knew they were coming, but kept it from me. I hadn't seen Adam & Ann since diagnosis and it lifted my spirits tremendously. We had a good visit, but short. They had to leave on Saturday morning.
Today (eleven days after my 1st chemo) I feel like myself. I felt nauseated this morning, but took a Zofran and was good the rest of the day. What a relief! I went to a Look Good, Feel Good workshop this morning at the Washington Mercy Hospital. An Esthetician was there to teach us how to apply make-up. It was nice to visit with others going through the same thing. Food even tastes good today!
My second chemo will be this Thursday, April 4. I'm feeling a little more nervous this time as I had been reading some of the side effects that others have had. I know it is individualized, so am keeping a positive attitude. I also quit reading so much on the subject.
We were going to shave my head Sunday, but so far, my hair is not falling out. I decided to wait until it does before taking that step.
I will update after my next chemo and let you all know how it is going! Keep those prayers and good thoughts coming.
