Never easy
Seeing that I just had my last chemo cycle, of course it couldn't just pass and let me go on my way. Last night I was running a fever and although I should have brought myself to the hospital, I didn't. I didn't want to wait, I didn't want to get ready and I was too weak. I woke up almost every three hours checking my temperature because if it got worse then I wouldn't be so stubborn. At 4:30am I was up at 102F and thought I should just call a cab and get his over with, but like I said I was too weak.
It's 2:10pm and I'm finally out of bed. I've been sleeping forever, but my temperature has gone down, thankfully.
I'm so dehydrated....

Of course, its never easy. This is just life's way of throwing a speed ball by ya! But with your perseverence and determination, I know you can do it.

Hi Babes,
I am sorry to hear that you have had to fight extra hard with this cycle. I am glad that you are beginning to feel better though. Drink lots of fluids if you can (easier said than done I know) Ensure (vanilla) has been helping me for 2007 as I have been fighting a bad case of pneumonia *yuck*. Keep fighting as I know you will, but hey! Remember don’t be toooo stubborn if the fever goes back up go to the doc’s.
I continue to pray for you and I think of you often.
Love ya’

hi Jenn, i'm glad the fever is down. try drinking gatorade or powerade to replenish any minerals that your body has lost. it might help give you a boost of energy.
