Beating this thing called Chemo ...
So with day 4 of chemo treatment done and dusted ... I've learnt a couple things ... chemo taken orally has definitely not got the same side effects as infused chemo ... what I've learnt so far with watching Ben do infused chemo.
1. Keep as still as possible ... as soon as he moves ... its tickets and anything in his system needs to come up.
2. Instead fatigue ... you can literally see the energy draining out of him
3. Do not even mention food ... or drink ... there is a kinda green tinge that they get.
4. Do not ask if they ok ... I found myself asking this question twice today ... and then realised ... dafunk am I asking this question for of course he isn't ok ...
5. Find creative ways to keep his mind busy even if it's as simple as playing a childhood game of I spy... it works ... focusing on something else distracted him long enough to get a smile ... mission accomplished for the day
6. You learn everyday
