And yet, another round of chemo today

Today I did the chemo bit..... once again. *Sigh* This is really getting old, it really is.
I always start to get nauseated before even the chemo hits my veins. All I need is the smell of the rubbing alcohol, the taste of the saline or the tast of the heprin and away I go feeling sick to the stomach. It really is for the most part mind over matter but I just can't get my mind to co operate no matter how hard I try.
I brought sour candies to suck on while I was getting the saline and the heprin. It helped a lot.
I did end up still feeling sick so I was offered gravol through IV. I went for it today to try it out. It worked really well!!
I was so tired but I would rather feel tired than sick. So, that was a sucess and something I will want to do again.

My aunt Brenda and I got chatting with a couple in the chemo room today. It was the husband that was there for chemo. Not sure what type of cancer. I always want to ask others what they are in for but never know if they want to discuss it or not so I don't bother.
We got chatting about Mexico since we are all going to go again (DV) in December before Christmas.
We got to hear some great storis from that couple and chatted quite a bit with them. It was nice.
I love to chat with people but have not had the most social of crowds for the most part.

I have some re arranging to do with my schedule coming up for the rest of the month.
My mom wants to go to Disneyland with my little brother (I have a 9 yr old brother believe it or not) Ethan and myself.
Dave can not go as he is working and can not get the time off.
We are going to go the week after next which means I have to get on re scheduling my CT scan and Oncologist appointment.
That and on the 20th we are all going up to Whistler for the day. That was booked when I was supposed to have the week off of chemo. However, since there was a delay last week, I have chemo next Friday. So, I have a re scheduling project for the next week!
That and I have to go into Surrey to get Ethan's passport submitted. Well, first he has to go tomorrow to get hair cut and passport photos taken. Lots to do!!!

The CT scan will show if the cancer is still dormant. It should be. Its like my body and this cancer have come to an understanding. My liver and spine have let the cancer stay, its like my body said "ok, you can stay ........ just don't touch anything!! Keep your hands to yourself" So, for now thats good enough for me. Would LOVE for it to go away but realistically, this is better than to be expected!

I am off to bed, I think its time to get sleep or my speed tomorrow will be either be slow or stop.
