Light at the end of the tunnel

Wake up at 6 AM to that sweet little face that I love so much, but so am not in the mood for just yet.  My stomach is turning, my head aches, I hurt to the touch.  She wants to give me hugs and cuddle, but that hurts. I get up and take my nausea medication which keeps me from wanting to die, but just barely!  I make us breakfast and make my way to the spot where  I will spend the rest of my day.  Thank goodness for grandma coming to take that sweet little face to go play at her house where she doesn't have to see my disgusted whiny face all day.  It's crazy how I am able to forget how awful this is from three weeks ago. I mean I knew it sucks, which is why I was dreading it, but I still forget the    details.   I wish I could just melt into the couch and sleep away the crappy feelings, but unfortunately I'm just too damned uncomfortable to sleep.  My neck hurts, my back hurts, my shoulders hurt, my stomach hurts. I feel like I have to eat all day long in order to not feel like I'm gonna hurl.  Thank goodness for good friends that have been bringing me food, so I don't have to worry about dinner.  I can't wait to forget about this feeling and never be able to remember what the details feel like.  So I lay hear feeling awful and miserable, but my husband brought me ice cream and my daughter is cuddling with me and this almost over. There is the light at the end of the tunnel. I wish I could run through it, but I'm too tired, but I'm getting there.

Third Time is Not the Charm

Four Days after my third treatment and this just Sucks!!! This does not get any easier with any experience or knowledge.   This is hard!!
A few things that I have learned:

Don't think it can't get any worse.......cause it most certainly can!

Cancer in the summer is not wise, hot flashes suck!

Pillows are awesome and you can never have too many.

Ice cream is the best!

This face can cure all:
