Round 1 starts


Now the chemo starts, first I have a training appointment this week, then the port is put in on Monday and chemo on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.  So next we will see just how long it takes for the hair to fall out.

I am praying that the chemo will shrink all of the tumors in my abdominal cavity so that eating gets a bit better. After I deal with the side effects of the chemo itself, I don’t expect this to be a walk in the park. But with my family and friends around me I am sure that I can get through this experience.

My primary doctor wants me to talk with the oncology specialist about the best diet for me while I go through all of this. In the meantime until I see that doctor next week she suggested that I stick with a very soft diet.  This will be a new experience for me but that doesn’t mean that it will be a bad one, just a different one.
