Someone asked me today how radiation was going. I told them my theory that the radiation machine is not actually emitting rays to kill the cancer, but instead is sucking the life out of me. I have been so tired lately. He reminded me of the movie, "The Princess Bride" and the Pit of Despair which contained the torture machine. Although the technology has come a long way, I still feel like Wesley after his encounter with the Machine.
I have now completed the 2nd week and have 3 more weeks to go. My skin is starting to look like I was out in the sun too long. I am also battling some nausea that can be controlled mostly by meds. But, I am generally pooped. I am able to keep going for awhile and then crash. I have seemed to lose that skip in my step.
