One of the side effects of chemo is tiredness. The tiredness has hit me full force and I can hardly get out of bed to go to work.
Also, the loss of short term memory is a problem. I have to write things down, and even then will have problems with short term memory. Also the loss of short term memory is a problem. Did you know that short term memory loss is a side effect of chemo? It is and I'm having some problems. What was your name again?

ReplyDeleteI can picture Jaimie, Kimothy, Sharon and Julie clustered around your bed, exuding love. You are blessed to have such a family.
Short-term memory loss is a pain in the biscuits. I have a small journal where I write down everything and piles of index cards for story ideas, books I'd like to read and music I'd like to hear. And I have a house checklist--is the stove off? door locked? dogs in?--which helps.
My doc had a consult with a neurologist about the results of my latest MRI--turns out the new damage was likely caused by my migraines. While I'm upset to learn I have more brain damage, I'm also glad to finally have concrete proof of my illness--the government loves that concrete proof.
I send you peace and gumption in equal measure.
Cousin Tamra
I am praying for you.
