Chemo #3 FAC

It's seem so long ago since I've posted anything.  I've been so lucky that there has not been anything to complain about.  After I got over the nausea of the second treatment, I had a great 2 weeks!

Today's treatment was okay.  I was very anxious about the whole thing.  It's really hard knowing that you are going to be sick.  There were a few moments I wanted to yank out all the tubes and just cry because I didn't want to go through it again.  Deep breaths and happy thoughts saved me. They gave some "queasy pops" to see if they would help with my stomach.  I think it just diverted my attention, which was helpful.  

I came home ate lunch and napped.  It's been about 3 hours and I'm feeling okay.  It feels as though the nausea is on it's way.  I have this yucky taste in my mouth and my head feels a little shaky.  They talked me into having the steroid again, they said it could help with the nausea.  I hope it makes a difference.  

I am so grateful for all the supportive thoughts and prayers!!  I pray for all you too!  The meals, childcare, and rides are so much more than I ever could ask for!  I honestly have the most giving and self-sacrificing family and friends.

I love all of you!
