Boring
I'm bored. I've been sitting on this couch for way too long. Got my second chemo treatment 6 days ago. I feel like I went in more prepared this time, so I handled it a little better. But there is no getting around the laying around. I get so tired and have such little energy that a walk to the kitchen is taxing. I now have way too much knowledge of the Real Housewives of New Jersey. Feeling better now, but still cant do a whole lot and have to be careful about germs and bacteria, so now I'm just bored. The hubby and kiddo are off at Raging Waters, which since that is just a giant pee pond, I am stuck at home, bored!! And on top of bored, I'm HUNGRY. My appetite is definitely not a problem. I feel like I could eat ALL day long. And everything sounds so good, but unfortunately, nothing actually tastes good!!! My mouth is just gross!!! There is no other explanation. Yuck!! And I am still not adjusting really well to being bald. Every time I go out, I feel paranoid that everyone is looking at me. It's still a little awkward and I really need to get more comfortable in my own skin. I am sure it will get easier, but for now I am still missing my hair!! Looking forward to feeling good the next two weeks. And almost at the half way point! Yay!!

Katrina, Glad to hear you have a good appetite and hope you are able to eat a lot of protein...I used to eat peanut butter just for snacking..When I got sores in my mouth 'oral thrush'..it was very painful and I couldn't swallow. I heated up a boullion cube and dropped small bits of raw ground beef in it, and it was easier to swallow! They gave me 'nystatin' to swish and swallow, and then they gave me Lidocaine Viscous for the pain! It really helped..Have you tried using plastic utensils to eat with as sometimes the metal gives you a ba taste.. When I lost my hair I just went bald as it was too hot to wear anything and they told me I had a very nice head so I felt better! I'm praying for you every day. Love Lill
