Chemo times 20

I thought I was well rested and prepared, but after this one I just felt completely wiped out. I was ready for bed at 8:30 Thursday night. I got to sleep in on Friday morning because I was using up a vacation day, so I was feeling good when I got up. The trouble is, I was hungry when I got up, so I ate breakfast. It's a vicious cycle: you're hungry so you eat, then the digestive system gets to feeling nauseous because you ate. Then you wait for the nausea meds to kick in. It's not extreme nausea, but enough to make you uncomfortable. It's sort of like that really nervous stomach feeling.

Ben & Sally were here for the weekend, and Vicki's parents came down Saturday morning to celebrate Lester's birthday. We had a good day and a great weekend.

Next Sunday we head back down to Houston.
