Start of Chemo

As the med techs call it, we had Day One of Cycle I.  We arrived at the oncology clinic with our bag packed:  1 DVD player, 1 IPod loaded with music, 2 novels, 2 daily newspapers, 1 Sudoku book of puzzles, 1 computer loaded with games, chips and crackers, and 2 bottles of water.  Those items took us through 7 1/2 hours of chemo.  Long, long day for both of us.  Only one of the drugs caused discomfort, while the rest went in without a hitch.  No nausea yet; Doc says if it comes it'll be tomorrow not tonight.  Tonight we hope to sleep better than last night.  All is going good so far.  Remember, one day at a time.
