Sickness

Apparently, I am not completely immune to post-chemo sickness. The sickness hit on Saturday evening, but by today it is finally getting better. I have been able to eat some and I have slept off and on. I am still nauseous, but I think (I hope!) the worst of it is behind me. The nurse said three days of sickness, so it was really a blessing to have one and a half days of sleepiness and one and a half of sickness.

I have no appointments until Wednesday when I get my blood drawn to check my bili count and test my white and red blood cell counts. They will check again just before my chemo appointment on Thursday as well. I am just planning to rest, eat what I can, and hope to be feeling better tomorrow.

We have been anxiously waiting to hear how you are doing! Thank goodness the nausea was only short-lived! It must be working and that is a good thing!

Love you,

Yes, I'd say that sickness day count is a pretty good one! Keep eating all that you can and rest lots. We'll keep praying! LIVESTRONG!
