It’s not been a good day. I can’t tell whether it is due to lingering effects of Taxol or new effects of Herceptin. Fatigue is the most common complain with Herceptin and I have that in spades. However, most of what I feel today also falls into the Taxol effects. In any case, it’s been a rough day.
I did manage to barely clean the house. I stripped the bed and changed linen. I emptied garbage cans, removed and shaked out rugs, vacuumed, and mopped. I also managed to clean the bathroom. I also managed to clean the bathroom. In between each step was sit down and rest. I got the laundry started and finally finished it up around noon. Then it was nap time.
Actually, today there was two nap times. I needed both. I ordered Chinese from DoorDash for dinner tonight. I spent $50 on the meal but I should get three meals out of it. I just didn’t have the energy to cook anything.
Today is Veterans Day. Today is the eighth anniversary of my having Rocky put down. I still miss that dog. He was great.
I posted on Facebook photos of my Dad, Archie, Uncle Ray and me as a Veterans Day tribute. To some extent, it’s a strange holiday. I guess it’s better than Memorial Day but not by much when we still have to send people off to war.
I’ve included photos of Archie and Dad in civies and Uncle Ray in military dress. You’ve already seen enough photos of me.
Hopefully, tomorrow will be better. I need it to be. Catherine has offered to take me to breakfast. Everything with me is on a day-by-day basis. Fortunately, all my friends recognize that and are not too upset when or if Ihave to cancel.
Stay tuned!
