Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone! It was definitely merry for me, since my entire second week after chemo #2 I felt close-to 100% normal. Yesterday Kathie and her sister spent about four hours cooking, with my mom and I helping wherever we were needed. We ended up with an enormous feast of turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, spinach, green beans, mac and cheese, and bread, plus Kathie’s and Jen’s mom made some Korean food. We had 13 people to feed, including sending some food to Kathie’s Aunt and her cousin, who were at home recovering from a car accident they were in the day before. They had to spend the night in the hospital, but thankfully are going to be alright.

Tomorrow is chemo #3. Looking back at my symptom tracker graphs, it really highlights how much better the second treatment went as compared to the first. I’m hoping the rest will be similar, but only time will tell. This past round, the only bad symptoms I had were all food tasting bad for a few days, and the mouth pain, which was not as bad as round 1. I’m just glad Christmas dinner was during a good week!
