Saturday 25th February
It's been such a long day so far. I've been awake since 3.30am. I did get a little sleep last night but it wasn't great. I'm sitting here just passing time, it's pouring down and I'm fed up. I hate doing nothing, I'm bored, and hungry, I can't taste food so what's the point making any, plus my bones ache so I can't be bothered to stand in the kitchen to make any.
I just keep telling myself that this will wear off and I'll feel better soon, and my last chemo session is not that far away if no delays. Ive been thinking about what I'm looking forward to when I've finished treatment,
Being able to see my grandson whenever I can.
Stroking my dogs without worrying about infection.
Not taking my temperature every morning.
Going to the dentist.
Hopefully tasting food again.
No more steroids,
A good curry,
Soft poached egg,
Prawns,
Soft cheese.
Hair, eyelashes, eyebrows.
That's it for today,
Stop this ride...I want to get off!!!
