I'm home and feeling pretty well. The biggest issue right now is feeling SO weak. Just walking from 1 room to another leaves me totally out of breath. Man, it's hard to believe that I went from being a tooter to this. (tooter is a Boyce term for really fit and in shape...like Tom & Kim).
Big thanks again to my family, who is taking such great care of me! They've been taking care of my every need and keeping me supplied with great food. Sara made some delicious soup yesterday and Mom made a rhubard custard pie. The sad thing is that it's kind of wasted on me right now 'cause the tastbuds on the top of my tongue aren't registering anything. Salty stuff is more appealing to me right now. Brenda, I haven't tried salsa yet. :)
I know I'm not out of the woods yet...the dr said the "bottom out" time in terms of white cell count being low is 10-14 days after my first chemo dose (which would be middle/late this week), but I feel stronger today than yesterday so I declare round 1 a success in my corner! :)
Thanks for reading. Susan
