Feeling Pretty Drowsey

I'm on my 2nd to last day of my chemo treatments and I'm starting to hit the point where I feel sleepy. I slept most of this morning, went on a walk for about 1/2 a mile and ate breakfast. I can just now start to feel my taste buds change as foods start to taste funny for about the next week or so. You just have to listen to your body. If your tired take a nap. If you aren't hungry then just eat small portions of items that you really like. What I usually do when I start losing my appetite is just order up several things that I like and then just pick at them. That way you can find out what tastes good on any particular day. :) I also have a weird craving for hot dogs when the Chemo starts to hit. Hahaha!

A big thanks to everyone who came to visit me yesterday too! My fantastic sister Lindsay had the day off and came with her friend Laura for a surprise visit!!! It really brightened my day. I have definitely gotten even closer to my wonderful sister throughout everything that has gone on. She's an amazing person!! Love ya Lindz!

For supper our good friends Jordan and Chelsea came with seasoned grilled chicken, green beans (with onions and bacon), corn and pasta salad. It was unbelievably good, I had 2 helpings of everything and a chocolate cookie to top it off. Stacey and I have a tradition with Jordan and Chelsea that we have a "last supper" before I go in for my treatments. We were all busy the week before so they just decided to bring it to me! You guys are the best! And Katelyn is super cool too! Sublime Rules!

My cousin Aaron and Mandy are coming to visit me for lunch so I have to sign off for now.

  2. Side note...of all the pictures on your blog, my favorite would be at Seaworld....for reasons we all know why. And it may or may not be related to the fact that I just saw Free Willy 4.

    Post some new pictures of your progress at the hospital. Photo shoot!

    Peace and Love,

  3. Anytime I get to walk into your apartment and feel complete creepy while getting your mail is fine with me. Also, I feel like I did an exceptional job watering your flowers and plants, and I may have found a niche' in my life.

    Stay strong buddy, see you soon!
