May 7

Back to radiation this morning. I was actually hoping to try to do a short run this morning but it really did not work out. I am feeling like I really need to exercise; more importantly the dogs are really missing their runs through the wilderness park. They give such judgemental looks when I bring out the walking leashes.

Cynthia says my conditions of feeling nauseated and tired sounds like pregnancy. If that is the case, I really do not understand large families.

To answer a few questions, yes I am loosing weight but I am trying to monitor it. The funny thing is that the dietitian and the doctors do not want me eating a lot of fruits and vegetables. I had no idea how much I would miss all the healthy stuff, especially when they give me a green light on fattening stuff. 2nd question, I have not lost my remaining hair yet but it does seem to be turning grey. I have not read anywhere that grey hair is a side effect, but I am lost for another explanation.

Tomorrow I go in for my second Oxaliplatin drip and start my second week of 5 fu and radiation.
I will try to post Friday between naps.

Finally, I am sure a lot you are wanting to edit and return this, but please resist the temptation as I am constantly reminded by my loving family members of my lack of writing talent.
