Out of the Cave
Hello sisters.
I hope you all found even just 5 minutes of genuine happiness today - if you haven't, stop reading and go find it. Then come back.
I finally crawled out of the chemo-cave a week a...
Hey Kelly, yeah we are having different treatments - I'm having FEC (3 rounds, 3 weeks apart) and then something else (not Taxol, the name escapes me right now...) also on a 3x3 schedule provided I tolerate the drug and don't go a bit metal ( have some mental health issues that WERE under control but chemo/steroids is messing with). Immediately after I finish chemo I start radiation for 5 weeks. Then it's back to surgery to get rid of other killer tit. Next infusion is 29th. When is yours? I think our dates are close together?
How are you coping? I think I've enter my 'Rage Phase'. My hair started falling out on Wednesday and I've had the shits ever since. It's not enough that we have are bodies mutilated then poisoned but we have to go bald too? F**k that. I feel like I've been branded and just want to hide.
AND THEN to add insult to injury, I had to shave my bloody legs tonight! I look like a circus freak but my legs are still hairy!!!
Thinking of you, have a great week (back to school, yay!). KJ XO
