AC Chemo

Sister, 
a few housekeeping rules for you.... 

• stop expecting to be at your peak when going through chemo whatever one it is .... 
• be gentle on yourself
• Know this roller coaster ride also builds resilience in your kids and hubby
• Eyes straight ahead look at the goal .... Cancer free and living life to the fullest, yes chemo is bl**dy crap 
• hydrate hydrate hydrate.... maybe with the melatoin you will sleep better and breeze through this last one... 

You inspire me I couldn't walk around the house let alone go for a walk alone while on my chemo, I would pass out when standing up or be throwing up or gastro nothing in between those 2 extremes... 
You have stepped up and you support anyone on here who needs support you will listen and point in the right direction then they are looking for help.  

You have come to the last AC chemo and you will have that then it will be Taxol  so much easier than AC .... yes you will continue to get tired as the chemo progresses through the stages, but you are doing this so that you can have a long life with memories of all the good things that you have all learnt through the Ride from hell.... 
Breathe in and slowly breathe out and let it go .... 

now in retrospect my kids(note adults now) recall the funny things and they tell me of the things I have forgotten about my Ride..... 
They also remind me of what they learnt through that time.... They tell me I am their hero I fought the bitch called BC and kicked her to the kerb.

Big hugs
