    Hi,

    That's not nice. I remember how my first one was so daunting, beforehand.

    Oh now that is just not fair!  I hope you don't feel too bad with it....some people seem to be worse than others.

    Did you have much morning sickness when you were pregnant?  Some say that that is a bit of an indicator as to how you will feel.....I'm not sure??

    I hope you have a quiet Christmas planned as you will probably be feeling rather tired....

    Take care,

    Louise

    Well I didn't get much in the way of morning sickness either I'm afraid and my third chemo has been the worst so far (the second one was a breeze!).  I hope you are right though and it won't affect you too badly.  As you said, the sooner you get started the sooner you finish but it still doesn't seem fair to be having it on Christmas eve! Its a shame you couldn't change the day to earlier this week...

    Have a wonderful but quiet Christmas with your family
