Slide continues
Today is worse than yesterday.
Not all that happy with this trend. I continue to be horizontal for the most part of the day and night. 7 days post chemo and was expecting to have recovered more. I am ok with it, I have no choice. The fatigue is reaching new levels. I said to a friend sometimes I feel catatonic. All I do is lay on my back and stare at the ceiling and the hours just slip by.
I have no real energy for reading, TV or people. I just sleep, rest and stare.
I walked around the block with Petra and the dog this afternoon and then I slipped quickly back into bed. Dog is loving it.
The girls have been amazing. So caring. They each take turns tending to what I may need. Really proud of how they are holding up. They slink into my room for quick quiet chats before returning to the more raucous household. Petra is doing OK as well but I can see its taking a toll. Tough for her. Like living with a ghost for 1/2 of the month, a recovering invalid for a week and then manic depressive off his lithium for the last week. I so love that last week.
