Day 6 post Chemo

It has been a week since Chemo, technically today is day 6 post chemo. Today I feel poopy. I am exhausted. Last night I hit a brick wall with my energy. I started with the chemo poops which suck. So all night crampy, until I finally had to leave the bed to drop some kids off at the pool. I am not really dehydrated more just exhausted and feeling not quite right. I really wish i could go back to bed and not have to be an adult today. At least i just need to get through today and tomorrow and then it is the weekend. We have company coming but i can at least relax with extra hands to help with the kids.

Today I heard news that a someone I knew lost her fight to cancer. This hits home. She was so positive and had the best outlook on life. She was loved by many. She leaves children behind and a husband. Makes this more real. The reality is, even when I beat this round, I have a 30% chance it will come back somewhere else. So far the smaller odds have not been in my favor. I mean I am in the group of women who are the LEAST likely to get cancer and with the HER2 gene which only 1 in 3 women with breast cancer have. LOL it is comical to think about and scary all at once.

So over all today I am exhausted, poopy and just not right. Husband also has to work tonight so it will be an early night for the kids and I.  That is a plus!


Here's to a better tomorrow!

Love
Jamie
