@margo,
Hey Boida...

So hoping you had a good-as-can-be weekend and perhaps indulged a little.... thinking of you for tomorrow and the week ahead.

Hugs girlie x

Stuffed cabbage and stuffed derma. Lots of rye bread for dunking. Foods that take me back to my childhood seem to be more than just tasty. They satisfy in a special way. Comfort foods? Kinda.


soooo, how was it?

I have chills and fever. Major coughing and chest congestion. Won't be picking up the fluoride tray on Monday.

The stuffed cabbage was a little too sweet. The derma was not bad.

Sighing big time.

@Roberta,
Sleep, Roberta. As much sleep as you can manage. At the very least, rest, if you can't sleep too well!
.. & some very gentle, (more liquid than solid) chicken soup. Lots of small bowls a day. Whether you feel hungry or not. Slurp away regardless.

Hang in there, Roberta. Be strong.

Agreed. Soup, rest, soup, followed by more rest.

As one who has a brother undergoing chemo, I can truly sympathize.

@Roberta,
My mom made a mean golabki(stuffed cabbage). The cabbage would melt in your mouth.
Hope your feeling better.

@Roberta,
Hey Girl

Wishing you were feeling stronger physically - p'raps the prednisolone is not asssisting on that front, along with the rest, but necessary in other ways. Sighing with you - but mustering up mental strength for you. Hugs x

Just back from the hospital. Got my swallowing therapy. Actually, it was more tongue, mouth, swallowing therapy. I have to go back in a week and a half so that they can check to make sure I'm doing it right.

Since I didn't pick up the fluoride tray on Monday, I figured I'd pick it up today. They told me I could get it any time. Hah! It appears that they should have said, "Any time but Wednesdays." I have an appointment to get it on the day I start radiation (Tuesday).

Busy, busy.

@Roberta,
Did the therapy help?

@sozobe,
Didn't actually do nuttin' except practice the moves.

I won't know whether it will help until I start the radiation. The therapy is to counteract the effects.

@Roberta,
Ah, I see.

Did the annoying Thingie heal? The one that was messing with your sleep?
