The morning of...

It looks like a promising day. The sun is out, the weather's nice. I did my usual morning routine. Then Joshua was crying because his legs hurt and he's got a slight fever. Jason was preparing to go to school. Suddenly he came running down the stairs and told me my door was open. I said I must have left our bedroom door open and asked him to close it. He said no, my car door was open. I panicked! I ran outside and indeed my car door was open. My heart was racing, did I lose anything? All my stuff are still in the car, the radio's still there and the car was running. How did that happen? What a way to start my day! Who needs coffee after that incident. ;) I hope that's not a sign that things will not go smoothly today.

It's another big day for me, I'm having my second chemo this morning at 11:00. I'm a bit nervous, I'm a bit anxious. I'm trying to relax and writing this entry for my blog. It helps me get rid of the stress.

I dread each time when I have to go to the oncology clinic. It is such a depressing place. Last Friday when we went there for my bloodwork and check-up, someone was so sick they had to call the nurse for help. I saw the patient's daughter crying. I felt her pain and was in tears myself. And I have to go there again today for my chemo. It sucks but I have to do it. On a positive note at least it's getting rid of the bad cancer cells.

Dr. K told me it will be the same as the first one. But who knows how my body will react to the second chemo. I survived the first one with a few pains/aches here and there. I think I was alright. I hope the second one will be about the same.
