I am a Fighter, but . . .


It has been rough. A lot of nausea, a lot of vomiting. I eat . . . I puke. I don't have the weight to lose. I don't have the energy to be this sick. I have good moments, spending time with my mom shopping or playing outside with my son. But then, within hours, I am a whole different person. There was a trip to the ER, my third since November. I have been sleeping a lot. My blood pressure is too high. The headaches suck. For someone who was told the CT scan didn't show spreading, I sure am struggling.

It's raining outside. I am going to lay down and listen and hopefully not be sick . . .

  4. I hope your good moments are outweighing the bad (or at least making it tolerable) -- and I hope you are feeling better. Keep fighting. I'm sending good thoughts your way.
