Chemo hit today.  Yesterday was pretty normal, but today was different.  Cathy woke up at a regular time and then took a morning nap.  She was conversational in the morning and then took another morning nap.  This afternoon was mostly naps with occasional interaction.  The evening has been almost all sleep.  She says it's not like any other fatigue she's ever had.  She feels exhausted, but after sleeping she doesn't feel rested.  


Thankfully, the nausea has been mild so far.  She says it feels like the "bluhs" when she's pregnant - uncomfortable, but not anything she can't manage.  We're staying on top of her nausea meds - compazine and zofran, and she's had a little ginger ale.  She hasn't eaten much today, but the nurse said that would be normal.  She's had a couple of graham crackers, a little cereal, and a bit of Bolthouse Farms smoothie.  Nothing is appealing to her.  Her mouth is extremely dry, as well, also normal.


Cathy's spirit is definitely there, though.  She peeked a smile at me from the sofa during dinner, she told me to make sure Clara had a big bottle tonight, and she let me know that my vehicle registration expired today.
