Hang in there!
You are doing great. Fatigue is an annoying affect of chemo (and cancer) that is cumulative, meaning it tends to increase as the treatments continue. Staying hydrated and nourished helps some, but mostly you just have to balance the rest and activity. Rest! A lot! But don't stay in bed...you have to keep moving some, even if it is just a walk around the yard. Don't let the fatigue scare you. It is just a part of the battle. You're doing great!
