This weekend
I really look forward to the weekends, because I can relax without having take any treatments. This weekend has been quite relaxing and I’ve got a lot of napping in because I feel a bit run down most of the time. The soreness in my mouth has become more pronounced and so eating nearly anything is a challenge. I forced myself to eat some cereal for breakfast yesterday and it felt like I was eating little razor blades. I won’t try that again. We had a very nice dinner at my mom’s house with Sarah and Owen last night. My mom is wonderful and made the food very soft, so after I used the swish and swallow medication, I was able to make it through all of my dinner pretty well. She also made a yummy key lime pie that was very easy to eat! After dinner we all played the game Taboo! for hours and had a blast.
So February is behind me now and only the month of March left for treatments. I’m excited about that and also a bit worried, since I have a greater quantity of treatments in front of me than behind me. Which means this month and next will truly be a challenge for eating and keeping my weight up. The facial, chest and lower back rash are still with me, but seem less “angry” these days. Probably due to the steroid cream and the other skin treatments I’ve been receiving from Denise. Still don’t feel like going out in public though.
Spent the whole weekend with my sons here at the house. Another reason I always look forward to the weekends. They are both very helpful around the house and Wyatt even mowed the front yard for me. Both are getting so big and tall. It won’t be long before both of them are taller than me.
