Re: Chemo brain

Karen, you are swimming each day in the sea?! How impressive is that! I swim too but just in a community pool, and although I love it, I can't think of anything more lovely than a morning in the sea.

You're doing a lot cognitively already with swimming and having to navigate through the maze of medical tests and procedures while speaking a second language. All is great stimulation for your brain cells.

And no, you're NOT crazy, you're not imagining things. "Chemo brain" is real. Hang in there...and enjoy your amazing life with Carlo.
