Round 1 over!

Well friends and enemies, it has been a couple crazy days since I last took time to post anything.  First and most important is that we made it through our first Chemo treatment on Monday.  I was most please that is was not a harsh as I had anticipated!  Nausea and fatigue did set in later in the evening and once again today, but if this is the worst, I can handle it.  I did learn an important lesson (or at least I got the POINT).  When the doctor tells you that if you have a temperature of 100.4 or above, it is vital that you call his office.  That is 100.4 and not 104 like I thought I heard.  You see, Saturday was a rough day for our protagonist.  Sore throat, chills and a temperature of 102!  I guess it would have been wise to call the Doctor.

Again, I am pleased that we have started our road to recovery, but I must say this is like a prison sentence.  I feel like I have been shuffled off to Folsom for the next 5 months or so.  Let’s hope time flies.
