Eric dropped me off at the wee hour of 7:15am (he had to get to a meeting).? I went to the Starbucks, got some coffee, and sat down to write some letters for a little while.?
8:00am found me upstairs in the lab, where a very friendly nurse verified my birthdate and said, "You're just a baby!"? I laughed and thought again that 35 is pretty awesome.
At 8:30am I was stalking the pharmacy while watching nervously for a nurse to call me back to see my doc.? The pharmacy opens at 8:30, and my appt was scheduled for 8:35.? Eep!? My prescription was ready (thank you, God!!), and my doc was running late, so all was well.
9:00ish? Called back to see the doc.? Labs looked good.? I confessed to my sprained ankle, but assured the doc is was a result of walking/talking/watching kids at a strange park, and not my neuropothied feet.? He felt it, declared it "just a ligament" and that was that.? Chemo approved!? Um, yay?
I sat in the waiting room until 10:15 for a 9:15 appt.? That's unfortunately normal at the cancer center.? I got some knitting done, as my needles and yarn are no longer fighting with me.?
Chemo officially started at 10:30, and I got my own room!? Awwww yeah!? I do like that.? It's nice and quiet and I don't feel like anyone is watching me.? I slept through Napoleon Dynamite, watched some of The Dark Knight, and then put in Disc 1 of Daria.? My snacks were awesome.? I had a big iced tea and some coffee.? Everything went well.
I stopped in to visit a friend really quick after chemo was done.? It was great to see her.
Eric picked me up a little before 3:00pm.
I feel like this chemo really kicked my ass.? After I'd been home a little while, I decided to lay down in bed for just a minute.? That turned into a few hours.? I'm better today and considering a grocery store run (hold me!).?
I'm praying for a relaxing day, and enough energy to work on cleaning up the homeschool room.
