Chemo

Well, the first round of chemotherapy is complete. I guess it's not what I expected but I'm not sure what I excepted. The meds have been playing hell on my body already and sadly...this is just the beginning. I can't wait to loose my hair (enter sarcasm here). I suppose if fighting cancer was easy then way more people would do it? But I did find out that 1 in every 3 woman do get cancer and I can't remember the odds for the men but that is scary when put like that. I have a huge family and I worry about all of them especially with what I have been going through this last week.

Chemo treats that I was on were put in through an IV every 12 hours. I'm not sure if this is how it will remain throughout this process or if eventually I'll have to start taking the "chemo pill". To me it doesn't seem like there will ever be an end. I heard words like 4 months 6 months...seriously??? That is forever especially when I'm on this side fighting. why can't they make a magic pill that will take away the cancer and all of the symptoms to boot?  I'm gonna say it again CANCER SUCKS!! You'll probably read that alot coming from me. ;)

As for the people who are having a hard time posting comments sorry I have no idea how to run this thing either. My cousin Shauna got me set up so maybe one day she can give us all a lesson together.
