Yeah, I said it. No sugar coating today. I'm not perfect
and always strong. This is hard. I am physically drained and the
medications are taking their toll. My day started at 5am with the first
round of meds, 6:30 vomiting, out the door by 7:20 to take the boys to
school, work by 8:00, 8:05 realize I forgot the anti-nausea med at home,
try to work but am so exhausted mentally
and physically I can't concentrate and get little done, take a late
lunch at 2:00 to get boys from school, 2:10 they are both sobbing about
their grandfather who died on Friday. It brought their feelings to a
head about possibly losing me and obviously I did not have the heart to
leave them and go back to work so we ended up crying together for the
rest of the afternoon. We are spent, we're ALL spent. I think we needed
time to get it all out. We stripped away all the layers and brave
fronts we are putting up and felt the pain. The emotional toll is
overwhelming. At this stage in my posts I usually start trying to find
the positive spin on everything but today, just this one day, I'm just
not going to. Today was shitty!
By the way, feel free to like this
post (or any other daily post). It lets me know you're out there and
taking the time to go on this journey with me. It makes me feel less
alone.
