Hey everyone, hope you all had a fantastic Christmas! mine was good, but uneventful,was nice just being in the same country as my family and friends.One reason the festive period was so quiet is down to the exhaustion that now dominates my waking hours. I have experienced drowsiness from medication before, but chemo cranks it up to a whole new level! From the moment I wake up I feel shattered, I frequently doze off in the afternoon, and reglarly pass out in front of the TV in the evenings. I often wake up in bed with my lamp and TV still on as I fell asleep before turning them off!On top of my mobility problems, the tiredness makes walking a dangerous business, I can easilly miss my step, and have fallen over twice in the last fortnight (thankfully indoors).
I did hoever get out on Wednesday(28th) for a pre-booked trip to the Maddermarket theatre in Norwich to watch "AChristmas Carol" with my mother, my brother drove us both there so walking was kept to a minimum, and I managed to stay awake during the whole performance- bonus!!
My new years Eve plans are also going to be quiet, I will stay home with my parents ( rock 'n'roll!!!) and probably watch the big ben chimes with a drink or two- this is if I manage the almighty task of ataying awake til midnight!
I hope you all have a great time tonight, Happy New Year and all the best for 2012!
