Round 3, Day 4- Chemo

This is definitely getting harder. Acupuncture was canceled AGAIN, so I was unable to get it after treatment, I am scheduled to get it tomorrow- too late? we'll see. Feeling the way I've felt this weekend truly proves that acupuncture helps. I'm tripling up on treatments next round!

Met with a nutritionist yesterday. She reminded me to be gentle on myself (as many of you have also reminded me) and to eat what I can eat. It's better to gain weight than to lose weight right now and once treatment is over we can talk about a better eating plan. I was scared she'd tell me I couldn't have three very important things in my current diet; wine, chocolate and pickles... but she didn't, whew! Of course, it's always the old adage, "everything in moderation" and I'm ok with that!

Thank you again to Greg Macchia and Clean Conscience for cleaning our house through the Cleaning for a Reason Program. They cleaned our house again yesterday and it is SO helpful! I've been sleeping for four days and hubby is getting backed up on house chores.

ALSO, a big thank you to Aimee & Ben, Mindi & Pedro, Kati & Mark, Kristen and everyone else for your words of inspiration.... I can't tell you how much it means to us right now.
