WHAT A ROLLER COASTER RIDE!

Last Sunday I walked in the Susan Komen Walk for a Cure. I did the entire 3.1 miles and had energy to spare. It was amazing! I even cooked dinner Sunday evening, fried chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy. (First meal I’ve cooked in many months) I had my new chemo drug on Monday morning. They had to give me benadryl prior to the chemo drug in case I had an allergic reaction, which thankfully, I did not. But due to the benadryl I was sleepy for several hours after treatment. I did work from 2:30 to 5:00 p.m. Tuesday morning I woke up and felt great. So great that I got up, cleaned and dusted my bedroom and vacuumed the entire house before going to work. (Oh, it was just like the good ole days!) Felt good all day Tuesday. Well.... come Wednesday morning that was all over, no more energy. I still went to work but left at noon and spent the rest of the day resting at home. Yesterday, I could barely get out of bed due to lack of energy. I did work from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., but it was a struggle all the way! Today I feel better and am at work but still feel weak and don’t think I will be able to stay the whole day. I am thankful for each day that I feel well and have some energy, but on the days I am so wiped out, I just want to cry - actually some days I do have a little cry. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers.
