By my 2nd treatment of chemo I really starting feeling the effects. Back then I had written down what the 2nd treatment did to me and how I felt about myself. Chemo not only physically makes you sick but mentally you start to break away from the real world and go into your very own! I now realize that all these effects were very common with those going through Breast Cancer treatment. At that time I just thought it was just me!
Below are my thoughts.
1/2009 This week I haven't felt all that bad... I was Eating, Sleeping and Taking Kids To School! But I have to say my spirits are low... I keep telling myself that this is totally normal! How can someone with Cancer and going through Chemo always be in good spirits and feel normal? Here is my wish list
I wish that sometimes...
1. People did not look at me funny!
2. That I could touch my head in the shower... When I wash my head I do it very quickly because it still feels weird to me!
3. I could taste flavorful food.
4. I did not have sleeping problems.
5. I did not gain weight! I thought for sure I'd loose but the steroid makes me retain water and want FATING FOOD!
6. I could get up in the morning feeling like I want to face the children.
7. I could stand Noise.
8. I could concentrate
