Week 4 Winding Down -- Thank Gawd!

I get my pump off in a few hours and I'll be done with week 4 -- none too soon. This has been a rough, rough week. Been kinda wierd, though.

Since Wednesday afternoon when the Chemo Drugs kicked in, I've felt horrible. During the day I feel horrible, I sleep a lot and just kinda lay around. But evening comes and, for some reason, things go way down hill.

Every evening I got to feeling worse then the vomiting kicks in -- and then I really start feeling bad. Tim's girlfriend was over Thursday night. I'm guessing she'll not be anxious to return after the show I put on.

Trying to stay hydrated but that's a challenge as well. It was on two different sets of scales so I'm not sure how accurate it was but, in theory, I lost 8 lbs between Tuesday morning and Friday morning. I could believe it, though.

But, this morning leaves me feeling bad but, I think, in little danger of vomiting. So hopefully I can get the pump off and get enough of this crap out of my system that I'll be done with the puking for the week.

I know, I'm sure I drive lots of you crazy with all these pleasant, upbeat posts like this. But sorry, I just can't help myself.
