What an interesting few days! Friday I had treatment as normal, then went and had lunch with my best friend. Its nice to be able to escape every now and then and somewhat pretend everything is normal. Even if its for a few split seconds at a time. The trip didnt last too long before I had to get home as I wasnt feeling great.
It took a few days but we also did some major closet clean outs! Between the baby stuff, and some of my stuff I have a car load to donate. Its nice getting rid of some things Ive hung on to for 10 years, praying theyll one day fit but all they do is take up precious closet room. Heck, I had work slacks in there from 2+ years ago that Im never going to wear again! I mean really does a stay at home mom need 10 slacks? No. So out they went!
Its 4am. I cant sleep. Thank you steroids! Yesterday wasnt much fun for me. Between the headaches, tummy aches, blurred vision, and sunburned scalp I wasnt feeling so hot. It literally feels as if each tiny hair on my head is on fire all of the time. This is from the radiation. The infamous feeling that happens before your hair falls out. My hair is indeed starting to fall out in clumps. Im almost welcoming it at this point. If It helps the pain, bring it! In one of my first posts I showed a picture of what that radiation did to my hair. This is worse than that! Since Im having whole brain radiation, ALL of my hair will fall out this time. Not just a spot. It not what I exactly wanted, (no hair) but Ill deal with it. Ha not like I have a choice now.
