I'm hoping I don't turn into a couch potato with no energy! That has been a worry. But yesterday, on the day before my first chemo, I did some sitting around that I didn't mind! I had a spur of the moment nail treat with old tennis buddy, Susan. We sat in some heavenly chairs and sipped on Starbucks...her treat! I didn't mind that sitting at all! And today I did some more sitting in a very comfy chair. Don and I wore some fun shirts and brought some reading and snacks and I had my very first chemo. I am not faking a smile like I am good at doing. I was just starting up a 3 hour treatment and it was an incredible relief to find the experience was just fine. No pain, no nausea... great staff and some amusing other patients. I know it won't all be this good, but I am happy, happy to start well!

I sort of had this blog hidden in the line up for a while, Mar! Wasn't sure if I was just blabbing to myself or actually wanting to share. So I guess it's good to know people can take a look if they want to. As for the shirt name. I love it. A mouthful when I want to request Don wear his ENAO shirt for me! I love that shirt. :D

Not-So-Happy List
Cancer, Covid & Coronary... I started this complaining list/blog, in May 2016. I posted 200 gripes about my breast CANCER and then I was done. On March 13, 2020, I started venting all over again, when another disease (starting with a C) interfered with my life. This time it was the invasion of COVID and it affected every person. I ranted for a year, until I got my COVID vaccine in March 2021. CORONARY Artery Disease was the reason I restarted this blog on September 26, 2021. This time it was my hubby Don, who was dealing with a worry that started with the letter "C". Coronavirus and Cancer, Coronary Artery Disease! All are evil, but none can totally get me down... if I vent! I usually end up feeling a little more positive at the end of each post! Navigating This Mess! The most recent post is at the top, from coronary posts in 2022, back to cancer posts in 2016. To find past posts, look below the "Archives" section, to find "Categories". Archives
