    Slept pretty well, except when my old lady dog decided she needed to pee at 3:30 in the morning. Woke up, didn't feel nauseous at all. I took my anti- nausea meds, better safe than sorry! Aside from some facial flushing, I feel really good.

    A few year ago I read an interesting article about mindfulness as a way to cope with the stress of chemo. Maybe you'll find it helpful, Snap.

    I hope things continue to go with with your treatment.

    My second infusion is this Wednesday. So far I've been doing well, even had brunch with jobob and melissam last week. I'm starting to lose my hair, kind of disconcerting. I have scarves and hats, but I find myself considering a wig.

I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure."

    I got a wig but don't like it and have only had it on my head twice in 3 months. It feels like it is going to pop right off. Scarves and more scarves for me. On the bright side, you won't have to shave your legs all summer.

    Hope the next 3 weeks go easily for you.
