My thoughts released; a mind set free |
| Another day of high heat and humidity, we hit 99 this afternoon with a heat index of 106. But at least there was a nice breeze today, and earlier this afternoon, some clouds moved in. With them, severe thunderstorm warnings are issued as the cold, dry air moves in. I never minded the heat and had trouble understanding people who can't handle the heat, but now, with the chemo effects, I know very well what they suffer and they have my sympathy. At least for me, this will all change again after I finish treatment. But for now, it's miserable to deal with high heat and humidity, especially since I cannot handle anything cold, either. I have to wear gloves to take anything out of the fridge! Hopefully, within another day or two, the cold sensitivity will pass. This round has me with no appetite, but otherwise doing well. I'm still tired (anemic) but not as bad as yesterday. I've been making myself eat foods that will boost my blood counts, like my homemade soup. It's handy to just heat up, and it's one of the few things I've eaten lately that tastes appealing. But, even though my appetite is nilch and few things taste good, I've managed to maintain my weight and keep my labs within normal parameters. |
