Tuesday I didn't feel great. I was achey, sick, tired, my teeth felt loose, my face was already numb, and I was just all around slow. I had chemo brain bad. But, I wasn't going to let that hold me back from Jenna's kinder testing. My mother in law brought me down to her school and I am proud to say she is 100% ready for kindergarten! She's such a smarty pants. After we got back, I took a nap and the kids left with her so I could be in some peace and quiet for awhile.
Wednesday I basically slept the entire day away. Every time I stood up I was really dizzy and nauseated so I decided to just take a nap instead of taking anything.It's amazing how much I can sleep during the day, yet still sleep at night. If I didn't wake up in a pool of sweat every few hours, I would be excited about the amount of sleep I'm getting. I also got the hiccups really bad and every time I hiccuped, I thought I was going to spew. It was the worst feeling ever. I hate being on the verge of puking all day. It's that watery mouth feeling where you know it's coming... but it never does. Ugh.
Thursday was the worst, but that's the norm. I hate that my entire body is basically numb. I can't even wipe myself properly. It's like having an out of body experience. I look in the mirror, and I don't see myself. I am totally out of sorts. The thought of drinking water is repulsive to me, I want to gag at the idea. My chest hurts real bad. When Bria screams it feels like my head is literally going to explode. Sometimes I wish the feelings were on the outside so people could understand, because it's truly beyond my explanation. I hate this part.
Friday is here, and I finally have normal clothes on (not pajamas). I am getting around better, but the numbness and overall feeling of sickness is still here. My mouth feels like I can't taste anything, yet I can still taste. My stomach pains are nauseating. I still get light headed, and dizzy when I stand up, so I'm just going to take it easy. My left arm feels like somebody has been sitting on it all day, so it should be an interesting weekend! TGIF! For real!
Hope you all have a fabulous weekend! Enjoy this gorgeous weather! xoxo
