I AM Alive!!

Sorry to all for not having posted anything the last couple of days and making you worry--I am alive!!:)

The only real side effects I'm feeling right now are exhaustion and some nausea or stomach irritation.  The day after my first treatment I went back to work thinking I could continue full speed ahead--NOT.  I nearly passed out in the operating room after 2 hours and I had to tuck my tail and retreat back to my office to regain my strength and energy; thought I was feeling better and then headed down for another case, only to last about 1 hour!:(  I quickly learned that I will definitely have limits, and this is only after the first treatment.

Once I'm home from work, I feel so wiped out all I want to do is lay down and sleep.  Thank goodness for Vicky, at least she makes sure I have something in my stomach before I pass out.  She has filled my fridge and freezer to the max!  Thanks to her, I am warding off neuropathy with my twice daily glucosamine drinks--YUK!  I am tanked with multivitamins and supplements that she keeps pushing.  She has been heaven sent, especially since I hate being in the kitchen!

My apologies to Sujin and Sam for being such horrible dinner company last night, I was too tired to socialize.  After filling my belly with the yummy Thai food they brought over, I fell out on the sofa and slept the rest of the night away!

I promise I am doing well, just catching up on some sleep if I don't answer my phone or text and I will reply soon to all!
