Chemo #5

Yesterday I received my fifth chemo treatment. I did pretty well until evening hit and then I became incredibly fatigued. It was also a rough night as I suffered a tremendous amount of acid reflux type stuff. Once I finally got that under control, I was able to sleep pretty well.

I woke up to find that 3 of my 4 children had climbed in bed with me. Thank goodness we have a king sized bed. I didn't mind. It just reminded me once again of the struggles they are having with all of this and their desire to be close and around their mom like things use to be. Although it is hard on me to see them struggle with this - it forces me to keep pressing on. I know that no matter what I should be on the downhill slide of my treatments. That is so refreshing in itself.

I am having some issues with my next treatment already. I will share those in my next post. It really is just a constant battle of the ups and downs of this process.

Hope all is well with each of you and that the blessings of God are abundantly yours.
