Food Countdown

If you know me at all, you know that I like food.  I appreciate a good meal.  I do NOT like to have my food or appetite taken away.  Therefore, it seems appropriate to share some yummy food photos this week, in anticipation of a potential food desert in my life.  

Of course, I have no clue how I will respond to chemo.  But after the run of complications I've been having, I don't have as much faith in myself as I did a couple months ago.  Here's hoping the anti-nausea meds work well and that I have minimal food-related (or any other) side effects.

Scheduling Update

I am now scheduled to have my mediport placed this Friday and for my first chemo on Monday, January 8.  From then on, I am scheduled for chemo every other Monday.

If anyone in the Arlington/DC area would like to give me a ride to either event, let me know! (Friday would be approximately 10:30am - 12:30pm and Monday would be roughly 9:00am - 12:30ish.)  Dan can take me, so I am not in a bind.  But I figure I'll take other rides when I can get them, to spare him the use of already depleted vacation and sick days. 

I hope to be able to drive myself to chemo during the first couple of months, so I am looking for a ride on Monday just because you never know.  When I reach months 3-4, I will need a ride every time because they'll be giving me Benadryl with the drugs.  No one wants Janet driving on Benadryl.
