I went to work yesterday. I arrived just before 8:00 am and it took me until 8:30 to get settled. I had a meeting with my boss and counterparts at 8:30. It was great to speak with them. I really miss being in the mix. I worked until 11:30 when I ran out of steam. Unfortunately, I felt miserable for the rest of the day.
I told my boss that I wouldn't make it to work today, I just don't feel right. I probably won't return again until after my next chemo treatment. I'm so grateful to work for an employer that cares about people. I've always been loyal to my company but when I return to work, I will be even more committed to it.
Some bad news...I thought the night sweats were gone but they have returned the past two nights. I still think they are going to end soon, but it makes for lousy sleep. It really affects my attitude as well. When I get enough sleep, it is so much easier to take one day at a time.
Some really good friends of ours brought a really yummy (yes, I said yummy) dinner last night. We are learning to accept service and are so grateful for the wonderful people in our lives that continue to help us.
