It made me a bit fatigued today as I am not sure whether this is all due to the chemo treatment or from being sick. Chatting with Mel today she wants to start planning on going to Spain, but it will need some coordination as we need a 3 week break prior. We also need to come up with some sort of a contingency plan for what we do on the 3rd week of treatment. Mel wants me to get some hydration this week, so we will see if we go with that plan. Xavier had a hockey game tonight and originally I was not going to attend but then I decided to go. I am not sure if I am going to keep stats or set up the cameras this year as he is playing at a lower level. I am not sure if I want to put in the effort to do it. Neuropathy is much worse this year compared to last year so I am not sure if I will be able to do it as well as mental fatigue. When asking Xavier he said he does not care. He is going to play the puck as much as he can this game. I do not know where the day went, I did things all day and things did not slow down till noon where I took a quick nap. Normally I am pretty good at making sure his skates are sharpened but he only told us late last night. It was a bit foolish as he could have told us earlier in the day and we could have gone on Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I have a drainage scheduled now for Thursday and hopefully this will help me out with some of my eating. I also started the mouth rinse again as it may help with the taste buds. We ate at my in-laws today and had a meat sauce with penne. Penne was very difficult to eat as the texture seemed off for me. I could taste the tomatoes and the meatballs and they were all ok. Tomorrow hopefully things are better and I can find things to eat. Plain rice was not great today, now were a lot of other foods that I tried out today. Tomorrow is a new day though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Q<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I think that I am getting sick as my throat seems to be a bit sore.
