Yes, the stuff has officially hit the fan...
...and they don't call it "chemo brain" for nothing.
Seems that I have a choice of being nauseous or being able to think....
You know, barfing isn't all that bad.
Seriously...my apologies for ever blowing off anyone who's suffered "brain fog" for any reason. It truly stinks.
On other news fronts; did I mention that we survived the first full week of chemo. Now I just have to survive recovering from it.
And did I mention, in the middle of all of this, that we got a new job? In a new state? This is obviously great news, but it comes at an awkward time. But I do have great leverage for home improvements at our new place that have been indefinitely deferred until our attempts to market our house!
Thanks for all the prayers and love. Keep 'em coming....they're the best medicine ever.
Love from Chemo Brain and her "Chemo Sabe"!

So good to hear you've made it through this latest challenge. . . Hope all is going smoothly (as well as can be expected, at least).
Please let us all know how we can pray specifically. . . rest? brain fog? appetite? any weird side effects from the chemo?
Blessed be the Lord,
who daily bears us up;
God is our salvation.
Ascribe power to God,
whose majesty is over Israel,
and whose power is in the skies.
Awesome is God from his sanctuary;
the God of Israel—he is the one who gives power and strength to his people.
Psalm 68: 19, 34-35
Lots of love!
Keith & Kathy
Praying for you and that you will recoup well from the week-long chemo trip.
Congrats on the new job! Is it in FL near your family now?
Take care, Heather.
Much love and hugs.
You constantly amaze me. To have such good humor in the middle of all this! Each time I read your blog I am reminded why I treasure your friendship. I know the job change will be a PITA for you on the heels of everything that's happening, but it will all work out fine in the end. And it brings you back closer to me! YAY! If there's anything AT ALL I can do for you on this end, PLEASE let me know.
Such an amusing blog is a GOOD sign. If you can't laugh @ yourself.....WHO CAN you laugh @? lol
But seriously, I'm not laughing AT you...lolololol ;-)
Praying for all you are going through. May God hold you and help you through the nausia or the brain fog or both.
Blessings.
Susan
Praying for you constantly.
Love you,
Laurie
Praying for you!
Love,
Beck
