I'm perplexed. I usually have very good manners which leads me to say and do the right thing when things are given to me. And in keeping with that I have said my "thank you's" for the many things I have received during my treatment such as the cards, encouraging notes/emails, flowers, casseroles, even pj's and slippers. What I'm not sure what to do with is all the crap chemo has given me along it's course (Ironic - I misspelled course as curse - HA!)
abdominal pain
alopecia (hair loss)
arthralgias (joint pain)
asthenia (weakness)
bone/joint pain
change in taste buds
chemo brain
chest pain
dehydration
diarrhwa
dry skin
dyspnea (gastric reflux)
exhaustion
foliculitis
headache
hives
insomnia
inferno flashes
lethargy
loss of appetite
(found; insatiable appetite)
mucositis (mouth sores)
myalgias (muscle pain)
nauseau
neutropenia
neutropenic fever
peripheral neuropathy (numbness & tingling)
skin changes
tachycardia (rapid pulse rate)
tender scalp
vomitting
xerostomia (dry mouth)
How 'bout if I just decide not to keep any of them?! :0) I doubt that even Ms. Manners would mind!
