I slept a little better last night, still had a spell awake, playing bridge.
Today, like all other days, I ate a lot! There is almost no time of day when I am not eating! It is harder to do than you might think. But I am managing to gain weight, which makes it all worthwhile. I need as much as I can get before the next round of chemotherapy. I eat all types of food, both home cooked fresh food, and junk! All I need are calories!
I forgot to mention it yesterday, but when I spoke to the nurse specialist, she confirmed that the solid sample of the bone marrow biopsy showed that I am truly in remission. I never doubted it would, but now that gate is fully open (and Topol has stopped shouting in my ear).
Today I managed two circuits round the close, but my lack of haemoglobin is limiting my ability to exercise. I think the leg could do 3 circuits, but I would not have the stamina to do it. This is going to be an ongoing problem, since my red cells will take several weeks to recover even after the transplant.
Today I did not have an afternoon nap, to see if I sleep more soundly at night. I will let you know (riveting stuff this blog eh!).
