~ Day 8 ~ Good vs. Evil

Every Saturday morning for the next few weeks I get to up my dose a little on one of the meds. So like every morning of this new life since starting treatment I got up at 5am to start taking my pills. I quickly figured out that if I get up early, take them and go back to bed for a little bit I am at least laying down for the wave of nausea, dizziness and heart palpitations that are inevitable. It also gives me time to think. Lately my thoughts have been drawn to the irony of putting something in my body more toxic and nasty to kill the cancer that is already toxic and nasty. Which is the good and which is evil? I was swimming along nicely 9 days ago pretty much symptom free but now, taking the meds to kill the cancer, I feel sicker than I ever have. Funny how things work.
