so, so tired

On Saturday, I started developing a cold. It wasn't much better by Wednesday, but we still had chemo. Giving thanks for small favors, the steroids relieved me of cold symptoms for Wednesday and Thursday, but today they're coming back.

After dinner Wednesday, I was really tired and took a 4-hour "nap", waking up at 12:30 only to go right to bed again. After staying home from work Thursday, similar events transpired Thursday evening. Oh yeah, and I didn't eat anything other than 1/4 a bagel and a few bites of mashed potatoes and peas. Not only was I not hungry, but the coating on my tongue makes everything lose its flavor... I just didn't feel like eating, at all.

Today I'm better, still a bit tired, but at least I can eat again.

ONLY TWO MORE... (and then I start radiation, which I'm told is no joyride either).

Only two more to go! It's good to see the light at the end of the tunnel. And from what you've said, the tumor seems to be responding, so I'll keep the Mojo-maticĀ® cranking out the good stuff for you.

And just think, as soon as you start the radiation YOU can be the light at the end of tunnel... or whatever room you happen to be in. :P
