Improvements
I'm really on the last set of chemotherapy treatments. That is very exciting. I commented to Rob the other day that I'm not feeling as bad as the first set in this series when I had expected to feel continuously worse. Rob always has interesting insight. He suggested that since I had felt so much better after the month long hiatus following the allergic reaction, that the first one hit hard. Now, there isn't so much difference each time. So, I guess going from good to fairly bad is more noticeable than from fairly bad to slightly worse!! Whatever!
Yesterday I did manage to ride my bike for four blocks. (That's circling one block!) I was much shakier than I expected when I started, but I got the hang of it. (What is it they say about never forgetting how to ride a bike?) But the four blocks was my limit. I had muscle fatigue by then. But it's been 18 months, 3 surgeries, and 8 months of chemotherapy since I've been on a bicycle, so I suppose that isn't too shabby for a first try!
Happy Spring!
