Mass + Chemo = ???

A friend picked me up this morning for 8:30 am Mass.  I always feel better when I start the day off with Mass.  More recollected and ready to take on the day. But... this was the first day of taking my chemo first in the morning.What would happen?  The last thing I want to do in Mass it make an untoward emission.  So I took an anti-nausea medicine with the chemo and hoped that would do the trick.  (I also sat very close to the bathroom.)  Fortunately, it did! After Mass, I went to Le Boulanger with some friends and had a yogurt fruit parfait - good probiotics for my tummy! Later met a friend and had a good conversation over lunch, a healthy serving of vegetables!

Later in the afternoon, I had another physical therapy appointment.  I seem to be losing some ground on my knee.  My ankle is swelling up now that I'm off the steroids.  Harumph!

Another radiation session tonight.  I seem to spend more time in the waiting room then I do in the treatment room, which I suppose is a good thing.  It was a surprise that Duane met me and the kiddo in the waiting room afterwards, and a good thing because the kiddo had a flag football party.  A good time was had by all, and the kiddo got the Best Defensive Player award.  Woo hoo!  He did catch a few good interceptions! I love watching him play. It's like watching grace in motion! I've never seen such a talented athlete.
