Chemo Drain Day

Winter had a nightmare at three in the morning last night, and I sat in the chair and rocked her in a blanket for an hour while the cat went wild climbing over things and skitting over things until i finally found the energy to chase him downstairs with a pillow and Winter and I moved to my bed where she woke me up every two minutes for the first hour to tell me that she loved me.  Not so bad.  I actually got probably a full ten  hours of sleep, and yet I was still exhausted come ten o'clock.

Dad made a good breakfast, and so I think it was just the first chemo drop this week being a little harder, fortunately I think my counts were high enough to take the beating and seem to be recovering.  I did help Winter with her bath this morning.

I got my dressing change today, I can now see how bad the rash was getting.  The home health guy says that this new patch is the best one one for that, but I might have to call and have him change it mid-week if it starts to come  undone.

Dad stopped by the local outdoor market and bought some fruit and veggies, and Heather signed for her house, the keys to which they'll have on Monday, so Monday should prove an exciting day.  Dad's been having phone problems, its not ringing and apparently he gets the voice message of anyone else.  I told him he might have to swap chips with Winter's phone.  Though hopefully it's the phone and not the chip in the first place.
