Another one bites the dust

Chemo #2 went well. I knew what to expect so it seemed like I was in and out of there in no time. I'm feeling good as far as nausea goes. I am experiencing a major teenage break out of large painful zits. I've always had this problem but it's worse than ever now. I never knew how much Birth control pills helped that and I am no longer using those. Also the Doc tells me that the steroids can cause that as well. I'll get it under control, I've dealt with it for years. I know many things to do for it. Steroids also cause a bit of bloat so I feel heavier than normal. My hair is starting to shed so I don't see it being around for more than another few days. Even though my body is taking a hit and not I'm not feeling very attractive, my spirit remains in tact. We all feel crappy about our outward being from time to time, my crappy feeling is just a little more intensified now. I know it's temporary so I can deal with it. I'm not an avid horoscope reader but I happened to read mine today.......

"A crisis of confidence can be a tricky and persistent little thing. Think of it as a weed growing in an otherwise healthy and beautiful garden -- the trick is to tear it out by its roots rather than snipping a little bit at what you can see. So rather than blaming some outward phenomenon for making you feel less than your best, sit down and go much deeper to find its source. Once you do, you can address the problem much more effectively."

That's me, the weed. It's telling me to do what I already know. Go deeper, find time to pray and meditate more.
I'll write again when the hair is gone, it won't be long, stay tuned.
