Hyper, not sleepy...


From my last entry, my chemo was delayed...once for shingles & a second time for a fingernail infection.  Also, my viral load for my hepatitis b is slightly detectable, so they are changing my medication.  I pray for no more delays in my chemo schedule.  For some reason having that stuff running thru my veins makes me feel safe.  Weird I know, but very true.

I just had my first chemo of the new year, & instead of it making me sleepy, the next day I was very hyper & full of energy.  So much that I managed to clean the house, did a load of laundry, cooked lunch & dinner, & washed a lot of dishes.  I'm wondering if it's the steroids that they give me?  I'm also very, very thirsty & my taste buds are slowly changing for the worse.  For about 10 - 15 fifteen days I lose my taste, everything taste like cardboard.  But, something also very weird happens, for some reason the sweet & the salty are intensified, so much that it ruins anything that I'm so used to eating.

Anyway, I hope you all had a great holiday season.  Santa was very generous to Kanoe this year & got her everything she wanted & then some. She is enjoying everything especially the Hello Kitty bike & V Tech camera.  It's neat looking at the pictures she takes, it's like the view of the world thru her eyes.  She is in school now & loving every minute of it.  I'm glad we were able to get her into preschool even though she missed almost 3 months from us being in Texas.

Well, that's about it for now.  I'll try to blog more often.  Sorry for the delays.  In the meantime, take care & God Bless!
