We had a nice relaxing weekend with family and friends. A big thank you to my sister (and kiddos) for helping out around the house. Even though I told her we didn't need it. She's stubborn, wonder where she gets that from. :0 )
Kevin helped out around the house too once he got back from checking on the Deer (rabbit) lease and putting out more corn for them. Hi Honey if you are reading this,,, love ya !
This Thursday I have my 4th round of chemo treatments and Dana will be there for support.
We usually play cards, read and chat a lot catching up on everything. This is of course after I wake up from my Benadryl zombie nap.
I am hoping this treatment goes like the last one, with very little nausea and just a few days of being very tired. There has been no big changes lately. I get tired and sometimes fatigue but a good nights sleep usually puts me back on track. At this point I have lost 16 lbs, but it's all weight I needed to loose anyway. I am sure some of it is muscle I have lost, but with my red blood cell count going up and down I can't really work out hard or be in the heat for very long. I am trying to avoid having a blood transfusion through the next 3 treatments. So far, so good, I just have to listen to my body and rest when it tells me I need too. I am getting a little better at that, but it's really hard to not stay active and on the go like we are so used to doing.
I am so over this summer hot temperature and ready for fall. Those are not words you usually hear from me but the heat really takes it out of me. I can't stand to be out in it for very long, so cooler weather will be so nice when it finally gets here.
I hope everyone has a nice week and I will blog again after my chemo treatment on Thursday.
