Happy New Year

[scottishlass]

I hope everyone of my flisters had a Happy New Year. We celebrated it very quietly with our dogs and good movies. It was really loud outside around midnight and I had a very frightened little girl doggie in my arms whose little heart pounded like mad. Good thing Cenour can't hear otherwise I would have about 20 kilos of dog in my arms as well :)

Today was my first treatment. I don't feel too bad though the sense of nausea is strong. I had the cutest male nurse setting the IV, he is half-Japanese (his surname is Wagner so he must have a German dad) and has the cutest smile ever, think a cross between Koike Teppei and the typical Kimura smirk. I asked him his first name and he said his friends call him Take and I immediately asked him: Oh is it short for Takeda and he grinned and nodded. Anyway, he was really good putting the IV in my arm and I hope he will be in charge for the rest of my chemo.
My arm feels very warm and I can't concentrate properly as I feel so tired but I'm okay. I had worst days, even though it will get worse. Probably by tonight I will be puking my stomach out, but it is okay ... I have to get through this.

For what it's worth, I've been keeping you in my prayers. Hang in there through the chemo.

EEEEEEEE! It sounds like not every single thing about this treatment will be bad. :D. I am already having some dorama-like ideas. :D

LOL yeah that would be nice ... having dorama/manga ideas while I get my chemo IV.

I wish you good luck and success in your treatment! :hug: And that Takeda nurse around, too - if he's able to keep you in better mood! :) Hang in there!

Thank you :) As for Takeda-kun, he is far too young and I don't think it is good to drool overly while getting my IV :)

[rika-66.livejournal.com]

But there is no need to drool, ne? :D :D
Just a bit of some innocent pleasure - of chatting with young, handsome man, and of looking at him and his "takuyish" smile! Why not? Especially it this can distract from unpleasant activities.

Hope you're feeling better, though I understand chemo is a rough road. Know that I'm thinking about you.

I had no idea that chemo had that side effect. Gee.. I'm so very sorry to hear that :(

[scottishlass.livejournal.com]

Chemo has all sorts of side effects, nausea is only one of the minor effects. Loss of hair, gaining weight (because you get high doses of cortisone) and some other nasties like malfunctions of inner organs etc. I get a weaker version of the whole shebang.
