I have had a real mixture of days: going from feeling really great to being so tired I had to go to bed even before people left on Sunday night.
Speaking to the family really lifts my spirit up so on Saturday morning I was feeling really good as I spent over an hour speaking with different people. Saturday afternoon was a different story; we went for a walk as it was such a great day and after 15 minutes my legs felt like lead and I was worn out. I came home and slept for two hours.
I spent the next couple of days being very frustrated as I wanted to feel good but didn’t. I still have to come to terms with doing too much and paying the price for it afterwards. As a great friend from Tanzania wrote “Would you PLEASE be patient with yourself?” Thanks Lisa I am trying, but not succeeding very well.
Monday evening was spent with friends over a meal and it is amazing how uplifting that is. I had a great night’s sleep and felt good this morning; friends are so special.
Well tomorrow is chemo day: I have to be at the hospital by 7:30am. Do you think I can sleep on the train and remember to get off at the correct station – watch this space.
This is a picture of Bill and I having a great meal on his birthday - and no, I do not have hair.
