My "Chemo" Sabes and 'Chemo" Kazis
Today is "Chemo Thursday" and I am sitting in my chair receiving Taxol number 11/12. The second to last treatment. These weekly and the prior every 2 week visits to the Hope Cancer Care Center for Women was made so much easier thanks to my wonderful nurses that I now call my 'Chemo-sabes' and 'Chemo- kazis'. Because they made sure that I never felt like a Lone(ly) Ranger when I was under their care (Chemo-sabe's) and always used their best knowledge and skills to promote cancer cellular suicide (Chemo -kazi's).
Each week following treatment I have 2-3 days of fatigue about mid week but feel quite well just before and just after Chemo Thursday. Yesterday I even walked up our mountain, almost to the top. I was out over 2 hours but had to factor in 2 or 3 visits with neighbors along the way. Still a pretty good amount of exercise.
Thanks again to everyone for your calls, cards, prayers and best wishes. they are very important to me. I'm doing great and am getting ready to rejoin the healthy. Hope to even have hair one of these days.
And then there was 1!
Remember to exercise and eat a healthy, plant based (preferably organic) diet. Keep cancer out of your life.
11 down down, now there is one!
