Thank You Notes, Blog Posts & Naps

Early in my diagnosis I was so efficient at writing thank you notes and blog posts.  It seemed that was all I was doing, but was able to keep up with thanking people and while the posts weren't as fast as I'd like they were regular enough that people felt informed.  Naps were something I hoped to do, but never seemed to make a reality.

Boy have things changed.  I am in the third full week of chemo and the side effects have kicked in.  I am nauseas and have lost my appetite.  I have sores in my mouth and on my face - look like a teenager with acne.  I'm cold all the time.  I'm exhausted.  I sleep all night in my bed and then sleep most of the day as well.  I can't seem to get enough sleep.

Therefore, my thank you notes are not getting written and I haven't finished a blog post in a long time.  Until this one.....

I'm alive and well.
The chemo is as horrible as they say but not as bad as they say...

Hope to have a more meaningful post soon.  In the meantime, thanks for caring and sending notes, text, messages, calls, etc.  Along with my great faith YOU remain the thing that bouys me.
