1st Day After Chemo

This ones going to be pretty short and not in the very eloquent way that I have been told recently that I am.  Thank you for those compliments.  Today is all about honesty.

Today sucked.  Pure and simple.  I had zero energy.  Eating was a forced process and tired me out immediately.  Every little thing I did tired me out.  Sat or was in bed all day but unfortunately wasn’t able to nap even though I really tried.  But, I made it through.  I ate all my meals, took all my meds and drank my required 64+ ounces of water.  My skin is dried out, my body aches, my stomach hurts, I have been flushed and warm all day and I basically feel and look like crap.

Got an appointment bright and early tomorrow so heading to bed to try to sleep.  Here’s hoping that tomorrow is a better day.
