Easiest Friday after Chemo, yet!

So sorry I did not blog yesterday - I know everyone is so curious about how my chemo crash day went with the new chemo drugs. Well, let's just say - everyone (doctors, nurses and patients) told me that Taxol was much easier to tolerate than the AC combo I had been taking. And again, they were right.

I really did not crash yesterday. I didn't feel very tired. And had an enjoyable day hanging with my sister. She came to help - but, since I am feeling fine, we just had fun! I have some achiness in my leg muscles, thighs and calves, and that's it. So far - no tingling or numbness, and the achiness in my muscles is doable - just taking Tylenol for that.

Jackie and I took Celia and Connor to school yesterday. Went to pick up some groceries and then sat with the senior citizens at Papa Jack's Ice Cream shop for an afternoon ice cream cone! After that, we came home, watched a movie and then went to Kristin's for pizza and beer!

Definitely best chemo crash day, yet!

Also - it was my brother's 30th Birthday yesterday! Happy Birthday Keith! We love you!

p.s. Jackie thinks I should be studied for "bionic powers" against chemo. She cannot believe how physically well I am doing while I am being poisoned by chemo drugs! But - I did meet a woman at Pluta on Tuesday, that had as little chemo side effects as I have had..........so I really am not the only one!
