Feeling deflated
Day 4 - after round three
How much can a person sleep??!! Feeling sore and deflated.
Damn it, I was starting to feel like my old self at the end of round two! (apart from the tiring quickly)........
Oh yes I remember those feelings well also. Just keep telling yourself this is all apart of getting rid of this God awful disease. Short term pain for long term pain. Start to plan something nice for when chemo is done. Something you can look forward to. Maybe a weekend away overlooking a beautiful scenery or a brunch with friends or even a holiday. I had 2 weeks away in Port Macquarie. We booked the holiday 2 weeks before I was diagnosed and it was shear fluke that it was spot bang in between the end of chemo and the start of radio. It was wonderful having something to look forward to and it was one of the nicest holidays I think I've ever had. It's ok to be tired and teary. You are filling your body with poison. Be kind to yourself and remember this is not forever. Take care. Karen xox
