I meant to blog yesterday on Sunday, but I really wasn’t feeling well. I pretty much did nothing. I listened to my audio book, and worked on my bible study, but found reading was hard. My vision was very blurred yesterday, so it made it harder to read and concentrate. Today my vision is better, so I know it is the medication. I had to take pain medication for the side effect of the Taxol, so I am sure it was the combination of both drugs.
Today, I am going to try to get some stuff done like a couple of loads of wash, but if that is all I do, then I will have to be good with that. I do have to walk Boaz, but that is a given. I would like to get out of Los Osos and into the sun because it is very foggy today, and I find the sun does help me feel a bit better.
Tomorrow I go to the plastic surgeon to go over what I have decided for surgery, and to get that rolling because the insurance will need to be pre-authorized. I figure surgery will be on the 4th or 5th Monday of July. (July 23 or 30) There are five Mondays next month.
I do have some pain in my muscles today, but it isn’t as bad. Maybe I won’t need pain medicine today. I will see. I prefer to be clear minded, but that doesn’t seem to be an option in this season as the chemo makes the mind fuzzy.
Well, onto my day. I am going to start the wash and go from here. I will lay low this afternoon and try reading again. A friend dropped off a book that I will give a go to later. It looks like a fun book. Light reading is in order.
I am so sorry, honeypie.
Just wanted to let you know I’m thinking of you and Pete today. Looking forward to going to dinner with you guys when you’re feeling up to it.
Thanks Annemarie. Maybe this weekend? I will see how I feel.
