The wee silent hours and thoughts on Chemo

Morning all,
The hours in the morning when I can't sleep are best for updating you guys. This is when I generally get up for an hour and then try to get back to sleep rather than tossing and turning.

I'm hurting a bit this morning and can "feel" the tumour if I sit in a certain way or move funny. Today's the first day it gets zapped by chemo though so things should get better. There are over 50 different types apparently, and they can be given either singly or as a cocktail of two or more.

I believe that I will be having a cocktail of two types. However for the moment that's all I know as I have purposely ignored what "brand" of Chemo I shall be having so that I will not be aware of its possible side effects and therefore will not talk myself into the worst of them.

talk soon
