May 17th 2nd chemo

My hair was coming out in thicker clumps by Monday. I couldn't style it any more, and the roots, which were by now very long and dark only added to the impression of patchy thinning. Rebecca helped me be brave and we removed my hair, saving tufts to make fringes out of, to tuck under my headgear. I am loving my new overlocker and have been sewing little hat and scarf combos.
Second chemo on Friday was as long a wait as last time. I got some much better anti-nausea tablets.
I have spent the weekend in bed, resting between visits from lovely friends, Judy, Sarah, Barbara, and my brother.
Learning to be a patient patient is hard. The advice they all give me is to do what my body says.. if it says rest, go lie down. It seems I can't hurry recovery along, just have to ride it out.
