    Glad you are able to prepare by doing homey things for youself and hubby before your next round of chemo. I will be hoping and praying that the side effects are minimal and you kick cancer's butt!

    You were a busy bee
    today. I hope things go well for you. You are an experienced warrior, though I sometimes wonder if that makes it easier or harder. At least you know how to take care of yourself and what you need to do to get through it. I hope the ickiness doesn't last long.

    I do that routine this weekend
    for cisplatin/gemzar AGAIN next week. It almost feels like a normal way of life. I, also like to have a couple of days of homecooked meals ahead for my guy. I had a fever last weekend and may have to postpone my infusion till the next week. Good luck with your infusion. I hope you have smooth sailing.
