Wow, another day goes by
Here I am only 5 days after another hit of Chemo. Wow did I begin the day with guns blazing! I was cranky with everyone and jealous of everyones life. I ranted about not hearing from people since ...

I hear you Bel!
Ditto about the crankiness and frustration, I hated the chemo induced negative (=toxic) state of mind, ain't a nice place to be. Prior starting my chemo I was all informed and prepared for the many physical side-effects (most of which I pretty much avoided) but didn't expect the chemo to mess my psyche so much. I found it very hard to deal with and this new side of me felt very disturbing too as I'm usually a rather positive person. And at times I think it scared my hubby a bit, too.. But like we discussed before we're lucky girls to have such beautiful understanding hubbies!
Anyway, I'm glad you only have one round of chemo to go Bel! Hang in there! It's now 5 weeks since my last chemo and it feels good to feel good again, sayonara chemo! I'm sending a lot of these positive vibes your way too! Yes, when it's all done bring on the chocolates, you've been so good with your diet on chemo that you deserve a major treat girl! If only we lived closer I'd come and share it with you!!
