This afternoon

Hot and cold
And hot and cold
And hot and cold
Hokey Dinah!

Taking the big meds today to try and stay less low than last round. I was out with K this morning and then did errands as Shawn's passenger. Came home, slept hard, ate some cookies, was able to drive Shawn to pick up the truck. Just so hot/cold. Oi. My oncologist is just waiting for me to slip into menopause, apparently a chemo treat. Yay. Um, no thanks!

Not much appetite today, my mouth is sort of weird, no taste buds, can't really feel my mouth. This is somewhat typical of the first day but not usually day four I don't think. Honestly, it gets hard to remember all the things that have happened. Just yesterday I realized that this body just had major surgery only four and a half months ago. Wow. Really??? Amazing.

Gotta cut my body some slack, she's doing a good job and been through a lot!
