Day 12

Okay...just woke up, it is 1:30 am...I did get a good 4 hrs. of sleep...in the bed! Pretty good for me. I actually feel....okay. It is just gorgeous outside...about 8" of fluffy, light virgin snow. I just went outside and took a bunch of pictures. (well, from the deck...LOL) It is so sparkly and beautiful..it is breathtaking. Makes me want to go make a snow angel....but I guess if I am laying in the snow at this time of night and someone happens to drive by...well...let's just say I better stay in!

My skin must be getting thin or something as yesterday, just sitting at a co-workers desk, I got a cut on my thumb(that I have no idea how I could get) and was dripping blood all over his desk. Prior to that, the day before I wore a t-neck that has wool in it and I had 2 sore spots on both sides of my neck where it had rubbed and lo and behold....I have 2 blood blister like sores on my neck. What the heck? Chemo is strange! My head is not tingly yet, the prelude to losing it, but it feels a little itchy and looks and feels a little flat. "They" say Day 14 is usually the hair loss day. That is the day I get my wig...I am excited to see it. Probably why I am up...as I do have a few butterflies. And that fact that Jeff is just not snoring...he is not wearing his CPAP mask/machine for Sleep Apnea and his breathing is driving me nuts from all the "stop breathing" episodes.

Looks like today will be a good work day for me as I am feeling real good again today. It does scare me a little for the next round of treatment because of the side effects returning for 5-8 days. But that isn't until Feb 1st, so I won't waste the worry today. Have an awesome day everyone! God Love You All.....Janet
