Chemo#1 Day#3

I woke up 4am to take my nausea pill and couldn't get back to sleep. I guess if my mind wasn't thinking about so many things I maybe would've gotten a little more shut eye. Either way, I have awoken to another great day! I am very lucky. I have not felt ANY of the symptoms that I was told I could encounter, not a single one. All your thoughts and prayers are doing their job. If I was not on vacation I am confident that I would be back to work tomorrow.

I am not sure what we have planned for today but I feel like getting out of the house for a while. I have not been out since chemo on Friday.

I finally got out. We went to Sylvia and Brent's to pick up Bella and Mina from Monica and to drop off my dad. I did not care for the car ride but it was a nice change. At noon is when I noticed that something was not quite right with my mouth. But I did not really notice it was something a little more major until we got home. I talked with the Kaiser nurse and she said that mouth issues are very common dring chemo. It is my tongue that is very sore. Ramon picked up the prescription mouth liquid for me and brought me home a JAMBA smoothie. The nurse did mention that smoothies would also help the discomfort.

Well, the girls are bathed, and ready for bed. The smoothie is a DEFINITE help and I hope that my mouth feels better in the A.M. :-)
