It Keeps Getting Better

This time of chemotherapy seems to be going the best so far.

No reactions to the drugs I'm taking.

No constipation issues (so far).

No extreme pains anywhere.

I'm just so sleepy....

Before cancer, it was pretty typical for me to get up around 4:30am to make it to Surefire Bootcamp on time and then be up and at it all day long until around 10pm or so.  That was my normal and I loved it!

Today, I slept until noon.  I took a nap from 5:45 til 8:15, and I'll probably go to bed around 11pm.  Translation: I will probably only be conscious for about nine hours today.

It's frustrating sometimes because I feel like I'm "wasting time."  Although, when I sit back and think about it, there's really not a whole lot I can do anyway.

Isaac likes to poke fun at me when I sleep this much, calling me a slacker and a bum, but then every time, he'll turn serious and say, "No, really, Ash... your body is just working on healing.  Go to sleep.  Sleep lots."

I'm glad he's an advocate for it, because that's about all I'm getting done right about now.
