Good on you. Yes it's scary but once you do it you realise it only needs to be managed moment by moment.
I've 9 days into second FEC, surgery hopefully after, with tax and hormone treatment etc. first went quiet badly with late onset nausea. Which means I'm dizzy and sick within 2 hours of treatment and it lasts for two weeks. Yay.
The best advice as I'm learning still ask for help, ring nurses and see your GP. this time I'm not vomiting second week just sick. Aches pains in limbs this time, sore mouth, throat and headaches. Brain fog. Add in badly constipated that where on the 3rd stage of treating. Two little boys mr. 2 and mr. Just turned 4.
This is sounding sad, and some days are hard but believe me there has been other just as hard things this year that is continuing. But where I'm heading is, I know some moments will be sad another angry another funny, life is every shade of colour light you can imagine. I apologise to the loved ones if I make a snappy comment. I realise I'm human. My kids are a great distraction, yet hard work. They know mum loves them with everything and some times she also has to say sorry.
They give me small moments that remind me life is wonderful and you only get wonderful by having the other shade.
I'm taking it abit easier than I thought I'd need to. I'm looking forward to sitting still and enjoying laughter, a glass of wine, food next week.
Love to all.
Ill try again when I'm not so foggy.
