It was a hard week in Tucson, my chemo hometown, and kind of hard to describe beyond detailing my dynamic body mass (I don't have a scale, but I wouldn't be surprised if I'm back to 120 by this evening). The expected side effects came on schedule and are abating - tender armpits, sore throat, fatigue, minor constipation. And yet, by Thursday I just felt awful, just totally knocked down. I didn't have the energy to write eloquently about it either.
I made it, though. My friend Miriam is here to take care of me now, and I know enough about this yucky cycle to make plans for tomorrow beyond resting and reading. Oooo, like blood test tomorrow morning!
My new favorite food: frozen banana (extra cold + extra potassium = yummy healthy goodness)
