When you are doing chemo treatments like I am right now you have your chemo week (the week you received your chemo) then you have your off week. This week is my off week since I do not have another treatment until Friday. I am hoping that I will continue to feel the way I am feeling now. I still get very tired by the end of each day, but feel pretty good every morning and a lot of the day. My plan for this week is to continue getting a lot of rest. I should be able to work each work day and maybe even not have to leave early. We will see how that goes.
So far I am doing so good. They say each treatment can and will affect you differently. We will just have to wait and see.
My next treatment is Friday the 16th. I am excited because my sister is going to come and stay a couple of days with me and take me to my treatment.
From the information that I have read and heard, this week will probably be the week I start to lose my hair. Going to be hard for me when that starts to happen. I can handle it though, it's just hair right. It will come back and most of the time it comes back the way it was before. Lets hope God doesn't punish me for all the times I said I hate my hair. hahahaha :)
Hair or no hair you are still beautiful!! Love you!!

ReplyDeleteHi Kim,
ReplyDeleteI work with Debbie. She let me read your blog and it brought back so many memories. I started my journey through breast cancer in August of 09 2 surgeries for the cancer then the port- chemo from Sept to Dec 09 then radiation from Jan 3 to Feb 26th 10. Lost my hair but it is all back now!! You are doing so well and I know from your attitude and all of the people who love and support you that you will come out better than ever! I was so blessed by family and friends too. Aren't we lucky to have so many praying for and helping us along the way. Anyway I just wanted to let you know some days are worse than others but they always get better:) You are an inspriation! Dot Lien
