Round 2

Round 2, 9:30 am, September 28, 2006: I had my blood drawn the day before treatment. The doctor says everything is good and ready for my second round of chemo. This time I was more prepared, I knew what to expect. It wasn't as scary this time, even though I didn't want to do it! It only took 3 hours, that's good, an hour less than last time. I was told it took about 3 hours, this is more like it.

I was hungry after treatment and a sub sandwich sounded good. I stopped by Safeway, why I don't know, I never go to Safeway. I must have gone there because it was on my way home or I just couldn't think where to buy a sub. I got a turkey sub with everything but tomatoes, I don't like tomatoes. I brought it home and for some reason it just did not taste good. I had olives on it, I like olives. But not today. After that sub I could hardly look at another olive, they grossed me out!

After eating, I began to feel that Mack truck feeling again. I was down again for another week and by the third week I was able to clean house and do the grocery shopping I needed to do before I had chemo again.
