Feeling the side effects!

Friends
I'm definitely feeling the side effects of my treatment. The first night i had a fever of 102, headaches and chills, after meds i broke the fever at midnight and then slept till 10:30am the next day. Yesterday was a good day, last night i couldn't get to sleep, my mind wouldn't stop, my body is charged up. Finally after some meds i fell asleep at 6am till 10am.

Today i had a headache all morning and didn't have much of an appetite. Thankfully Dyan's mom is here to help out. My headache got better by the afternoon. Now i'm getting really tired and have taken my meds, so don't hold anything against me that i say since i'm getting a little loopy! The kids think it's hilarious, i'll ask them the same question or mix up days, pretty funny! Even with all that Seth asked me to help him study for his Social Studies test last night & he ended up getting a B!

This first week is an experiment with how my body will react and figuring out the right meds and schedule. If i don't respond to your emails, phone calls and texts right away don't think they don't matter to me. I can't tell you how much i appreciate your thots and prayers for me & Dyan and the kids. Dyan is such a wonderful wife. She is handling things like a champ!

I'm realizing getting my rest is the most important thing. My meds are key it that regimen. Then hydration & eating. I've been doing well at drinking 1/2 my body weight, today i only got about 50-60 ounces down instead of 90, and i know this will come to a surprise to most of you, i didn't desire food. I made myself eat in order to get some good nutrition in my body.

I know God is with me as we walk this journey and put my hope in him! I read in Luke 5 about a man who had leprosy who fell to his knees and begged Jesus if you are willing to heal him. Jesus reached out his hand and touched him and said i am willing. The man was healed instantly and went praising the Lord to all he met. No matter what you are going thru God wants to bring healing in your life. Put your faith in him and you will experience the hope and joy of God's miraculous touch.

Thank you again for all of your prayers! They are working. We'll it's off to bed, i think i'm gonna sleep like a baby tonight!

Luv u all!
