Hair starting to fall...out
As day six begins, I'm feeling tired but still much better than I'd imagined. I feel free from the "chemo" fog for only a few hours a day. And the rest of the time (18-20 hours), I'm sleeping, waking up/ falling asleep or thinking hard about sleeping:) I seem to be able to sleep during the day more easlily, and thank-goodness for air-conditioning. I've been camping out in the living room around that New air-conditioner and thanking God for it, (though Chris actually bought it and installed it:) I'm glad that we can financially be in a positon that we can buy an air conditioner and not have to think about it, since it's going to make me more comfortable and we've been given money to help make things easier for me. Hanging out in the living room has worked for hanging out with the girls more as well, and just being around in their space. Though Cadence got right in my chest space today and jammed my portacath very hard, that didn't feel so good:( Yeah fast acting morphine!! I think she actually moved the thing under my skin, it'll probably bruise. Oh well. I suppose I should have some pain and suffering, I feel as though I've gotten off a little easy. When I hoped for the best and prepared for the worst, this is much better than I'd hoped for. Now I'm going to drink my flat gingerale, put my feet up in front of the Great AC,have a cookie and slowly pull my hair out, (don't worry, it doesn't hurt one bit:)
