First Chemo Down
First chemo: Dec. 7, 2018 Unexpected blessing: The day before I started chemo I was invited to a cancer group. I was skeptical but it turned out to be awesome! It was a small group with welcoming people and lots of different stories. I loved that we could laugh and talk about life and not have cancer be this big lead balloon in the room that covered all the joy. Thanks for letting me come! :) Chemo Details-ish: I took half a day off of work on Friday and had a three hour infusion. My mom came with me (yay for moms!!). It wasn’t fun but wasn’t horrible. I didn’t start to feel nauseous until an hour after I got home. There are a few anti-nausea meds I’ve been trying out. Currently I am still at home. The whole weekend I felt pretty icky and didn’t eat much. I’m feeling a little better today and will hopefully be able to go to work for the last six school days before Christmas break! Saltine crackers and fruit smoothies have been my best friends! One chemo down, 14 to go!!! Goi
