Re: Chemo 1 Done!

I slept so much I think my couch has my butt imprinted on it. Let your body rest and just think that this is the meds distroying the cancer. You will bounce back in a few days. Have fun with the burping, you have a good excuse, try the alphabet or signing a song while burping (LOL). Here's to a fast countdown.
