Well done you! I know that I get very antsy if I don't get out for my walk each day! i cope with 1 day but that's about it - mind you on the very tries days just after chemo they are very short and flat! Today was lovely though as I was feeling good, the weather agreed and I got to take my granddaughter in her pram for almost an hour.
I don't have the burning soles of my feet but my toes! In fact I have blisters on every one of them and several on the big toes! This is making walking less comfortable and I whip the shoes and socks off very quickly - thank goodness the weather has improved enough that I'm not frezzing in thongs. The oncologist and nurses have stressed to keep using sorbelene or similar in lashings and it does seem to be helping (as does hanging my feet out the side of the bed at night!!).
What a wonderful gesture by your daughter - they tend to have the uncanny knack of break our steely reserve sometimes don't they? Both one of my sons and my daughter came from the other end of the state (4hours) to take be for my last treatment - huge treat!!

Hugs and as much strong vibes as possible coming your way.
