Re: Chemo 1 Done!

MJo, I am realizing that now...it ain't a picnic. More like what one probably feels after a prolonged sparring session. Thankfully though, I am day 4 post chemo and I think I am already on the rebound from the lethargy..I hope I haven't spoken too soon. But no matter how better I am feeling now, I am for sure on the alert for anything contagious. All masked up, I am on one side of a room and my kids on the other...it's sad. As for keeping the household running, I am blessed to have family and friends who help tons with what needs to be done in the house. Just really need to keep on counting our blessings
