As I explained last night to Steve, who got the full blown “I’m tired” speech, I needed to be sad so I could be happy again. There were a few more tears this morning as I read the many e-mails in response to yesterday’s blog. I was reminded of the tremendous support that I have from family and friends. Thank you.
After reading the e-mails, I got ready to go the grocery store. I decided I would ban all head gear for the day. So instead of using my regular moisturizer on my head, I decided to get out the good stuff…some expensive moisturizer made in Paris. The noggin polished up quite nicely. As I headed out the door, my initial reaction was to bring a hat…just in case I chicken out. Then, I thought, “I’m not wearing a BLEEPing hat!” Despite my initial hesitation, the outing was fine but the trip through the frozen food isle was quicker than usual.
Still swimming,
me

Hey Kim
Read about being tired. My Aunt often spoke of months 4 and 5 being the worst. And, how month 6 everything changed - because she was close to the end of treatments and saw the light at the end of the tunnel. It gave her a real lift and she was in much better spirits.
Now for a funny - about those hot flashes you experienced. When my mom started the "change" (man - who invents these tersm?) she had serious hot flashes. I remember one Sunday going for dinner and my dad answering the door in his snow mobile suit - on a hot July day of 34c! Complete with boots, gloves and hat! I walked in (very surprised) and asked him if he was okay. He said "Do you find it cold in here?" Actually, it was quite frosty. Around the corner comes my mom in a swim suit - still too hot. The a/c was at 16c!!! I had to actually go outside to warm up!
When is your next treatment? Time to book at my place. RSVP
