I had my 18th radiation treatment today...2 to go...and requested a prescription for Tylenol 3 just in case I have another day like Sunday. I took one at about 11:15 A.M. because the scab under my lip was more than a little irritating and darned near fell asleep standing up before 1 P.M. One of the side effects of Tylenol 3 is that it makes you drowsy. I have treatment #19 tomorrow morning and I'm supposed to take a tablet before going to it but I'm slightly worried it will make it dangerous to drive. I shouldn't have any problem getting to the clinic but if I'm drowsy when I leave, Faye will bring Marilee or Kyran to pick me up and drive my car home.
Kim brought my Diet Pepsi (she says she feels like my drug pusher), dish detergent and milk after work so I'm well looked after by my wonderful family. I also had the last half of Cindy's care package for dinner tonight. I'm one lucky lady.
Mary phoned and offered to take me to the casino but I'm hibernating until this stupid thing starts to heal. The date I have in mind is October 27th and that's what keeps me going.
There is a saying that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. There's another saying that you find out who your friends are when you're in need. I am truly blessed.
