I was still very tired today. My bones are also very achy from my booster shot on Thursday. My head seems to be clearing a bit which is nice. I hate living with the chemo brain fog. My taste buds seem to have returned and the metallic taste is gone. My mouth is no longer sore from the mouth sores. So all-in-all, I am feeling better despite the fatigue and the soreness.
I think everyone is finally getting healthy in the family as well. Kearyn is the last one with a cough but she is in good spirits which is nice. It wasn't that she was ever really that fussy, she just wanted to be held all of the time and didn't want to play or anything. It is so hard when your baby is sick.
I had not left the house in several days and I just really felt that I needed to get out. My sister and her husband graciously agreed to watch the kids for us while Jason and I went to dinner which was sponsored by some dear friends of ours.
This was the first time in a long, long time that we have had time for just the two of us and we cherished every minute of it. We even had dessert. :-)
These are the moments that I cling to. We had good conversation about things that didn't remotely relate to cancer or cancer treatment. It was just like old times or new times, however you want to look at it.
I am excited to get past this. I am excited to start a new chapter in my life. I am excited to not burden my family with this any longer. These are the things I dream of.
