Chemo 10.1

After positing Chemo 10.0 yesterday, I took about a 3 hour nap. I usually like to treat myself with a "relaxing pill" after chemo (I keep wanting to call it a "relaxative"), but I decided to go au naturale. I figured if the pill knocked me out for the nap, then I might not be able to sleep at night, and you can only take one pill a day. As soon as I put my head on the pillow I went out cold though, so it seems the pill is just over kill. Once again, the best way I can describe chemo is that you feel like you have been poisoned. Your body doesn't like it. Among other things, it makes me really tired.

I slept fine last night. I got up at about nine this morning, and right now I am siting on the couch waiting for Mathilde and the girls to get back from picking up my Mom at the airport. Her flight was delayed by about 3 hours, which actually works out pretty good. Mathilde's Dad is also returning from a 4 week business trip in the States, and arrives just about now. So, for the girls its a double bonus - they get to pick up two grandparents in one swoop. They were up early this morning making welcome signs for the both of them.

Other than being tired and feeling poisoned, chemo round 10 is going fine so far. All the usual nasties are in check.
