Chemo kicking in.

 Today started out mostly normal. Read scripture in Romans then I went for a relaxing hour bike ride with sister, Paula. 

Chemo side effects are starting to kick in a bit more. My taster is getting really off to the point my saliva tastes like metal. I feel sooo bloated like I swallowed a watermelon. My vision feels a bit jittery and my brain is feeling chemo funky now. I hung out with mama most of the day then a little time with my sis, Melissa, this evening. She lets me cry as I’m feeling emotional about the chemo side effects starting again, gives me her beet juice, rubs my back, let’s me be me and encourages me knowing it’s short term. This is why I’m in Rockford!
