Just Floating



I've never been this sick for this long. It's getting pretty old, I'm ready to move on now. Unfortunately, my body doesn't seem to agree.

My temperature remains in the normal range. I think I'm feeling a little better each day, but I am still very weak and I don't feel anything like 'normal'. Not even my chemotized normal, which I have gotten used to. I could never get used to the way I've felt this past week.

I did have the energy yesterday to pay some bills, do some laundry, and run to the bank and post office. Luckily the weather is nice here (in the 50's) or I wouldn't even attempt to leave the house.

I got virtually no sleep last night. I blame it on all of the drugs crashing around in my body. I hate taking stuff, prescription or over-the-counter. I mean, I will if I HAVE to (which obviously I do right now), but otherwise I try not to because I don't like all of the side effects and the drugged out way they make me feel.

Sometimes the 'cure' feels worse than the illness.

I sympathize with you, Kelly. I awoke with a bug last Saturday and am still not feeling good. I can't remember the last time I felt so icky. If I could suffer more for you to get well, I would, because I can't imagine living in your shoes with what you're going through without the added complications of the germs that are floating around everywhere these days. I can't help but think this crazy weather (highs and lows) has a lot to do with it. I look forward to reading your blog with healing good news very soon. God be with you and give you strength.
