Everyone goes through chemo differently. Like you, I feel I was relatively lucky although I do feel as though I spent most of the time in bed!
Regarding Melissa E. I don't live in the US right now so I didn't see the show either but I am always glad when celebrities speak out about such things - it helps us all and perhpas her statements will help get working women more time off during treatment.
Also my husband and I worked on a charity film aimed at young people and she participated - no payment of any kind to her. She showed up for the filming alone, drove herself, sang her heart out and stayed as long as necessary and then graciously posed with all our crew members for photos. In this time of rampant selfishness and greed, she gave generously of her time. Very few of the celebrities used demanded much but she demanded absolutely nothing.
Like everyone with this disease, I wish her luck.
