Today was my first day of chemo. We arrived at ten and we went to a large room with lots of recliners. I sat down and they hooked me up. First they give fluids then anti nausea medication and steroids. That took about 45 minutes. Next they gave me the chemo medicines and that took about 45 minutes also. We were out of there at about 12:40. We talked to some of the people that were there, well I guess I should say Jill did and I tried to join in. I need to be more social in these types of situations, she was a good example for me. Dad came by to check on us. I think he was really nervous about today. Well I guess we both were. The only thing I really noticed during the treatment was my sinuses swelling a little and my nose running. Other than that there really wasn't anything. I have decided to use my time while I'm sitting there to make a new quilt that I'm going to call my cancer quilt. I've always wanted to try hand applique so that's what it is. Jill worked on a square too. It was actually a lot of fun. So they said that I should feel pretty good today and tomorrow and then the next two days could be bad. So I am a little concerned about whether I will be able to go to Sila's baptism because that is the week of treatment. I am going to be really careful the next few days and follow all the doctors directions to see if I can minimize bad days. So with that said I am going to go drink more water.
