I'm home sick again. I considered heading to work for a few hours, but I have to leave by 10:45 am to take Kasha to chemo anyway - so it didn't make that much sense. And I'd been planning to go back to work in the afternoon - my mom had volunteered to catsit so someone would be there to keep an eye on Kasha, but I don't want my mom being exposed to whatever I have... so it just wasn't worth the effort to even try to get into work today. My team lead already emailed to let me know he appreciated me keeping my sickness at home with me.

Kasha's appetite is blah this am. I read somewhere something about chemotherapy being more effective with fasting - I'm not entirely sure what they meant (how much fasting, etc) but I figure that if she gets nauseated by the treatment, it's probably just as well that she doesn't have a full tummy. Anyway- the point is, on chemo days I kind of leave her alone if she doesn't want to eat much.

These treatments make me anxious. I'm not sure which chemical she's getting today - it could be the vincristine, which made her feel kind of lousy for most of the following week. Or it could be a chemical we haven't had yet.

sorry to hear you are still feeling down with that nasty bug going around ... I hope kasha has a decent chemo visit today and that she wants to eat soon again ...
 
Re: 10/6 Kasha AMPS 147

Sorry to hear you're still sick. This whatever it is, cold or flu is the pits!
Hope all goes well with Kasha's chemo and she doesn't feel too badly afterward.

I hope that Kasha's chemo went well today and that she has no ill effects. Believe me I know the anxiety of Chemo Day. Hope you get over that nasty bug soon too. Too much all at once.
 
It was a vincristine day for Kasha (chemo drug). This one made her feel kind of icky for days last time. She had a cerenia shot today, so it might not hit her till tomorrow.

I'm feeling lousy - you know how sometimes when you start getting better, you actually feel worse. Yup. My whole face hurts, my teeth hurt, my head hurts from my sinuses and my nose is completely stuffed up. Ugh. Going to be a fun night trying to sleep...

Oh well - time for more tea...
 
Hey Krys, Just say to yourself: "every day in every way I am feeling better and better". And then repeat it for Kasha. This was my Auntie Elsie's mantra, and she was hardly ever sick in all of her 99 years. When she didn't feel well, she just went on anyway and it went away (but in those days people didn't even think of staying home so they wouldn't give what they had to others!!). Anyway, I hope that you will feel much better tomorrow. Chicken soup is for people as well as for kitties, you know. Give it a try. Lots of good thoughts are being sent to you and to Kasha. I hope that she'll be able to tolerate well this latest chemo.

Hugs,
Ella
