I remember the chemo and it was exactly like this. 5 days of shit every 2 weeks, and a slow tumble up the next 9 days, waiting for the new round.
I got the luck to have a "gentle" lymphoma, but the chemo is hard nonetheless. My 2 last rounds, I couldn't bend down to grab a pan without sweating, starting to tremble and having difficulty breathing.
Let's hope that he gets all the love he needs to pass through gently.
- cmollis 10y agoyes, exactly... My girlfriend went through about 2-3 days of 'suck' and then it was ok for a few days (although her cancer was different (colon). The chemo was brutal.. She swears that she'll never do it again, but she's been 'ok' for over 5 years so hopefully she'll never have to make that shitty decision... but she's not scared... of anything. You're probably not either.
- douche 10y agoChemo is fucking miserable. Somehow, pure stubborn cussedness and youth, I guess, I willed myself to play high school basketball through my 12 weeks of lymphoma treatments, even driving two hours, getting shot full of nitrogen mustard, riding another two hours home and then scoring ten points with eight rebounds in a game that night. How the hell, I don't know... Should have gotten ESPN on the phone... Running windsprints at 51% of normal red blood cell count is probably the stupidest, most painful, thing I've ever done. Best of luck to him
