Couch Potato!!!

Yep that was ME this past weekend! No kidding. And you know what? It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be to just "surrender"to my body, and allow it to rest as much as it needed. However, it was/is difficult to acknowledge how much rest I require at this time. Honestly 10-12 hours feels about right! That is a LOT isn't it? I am hoping that continuing the increase in the amount of sleep I get in the next few days, or weeks even, then eventually I may need/require less. At least that's what I am hoping lol. We'll see...

I'll see how things work out this week when I am scheduled for one of my chemotherapy treatments. I hope that my commitment to more sleep/rest will mean; 1) that I won't have to postpone the treatment due to feeling too tired to even go in for the infusion! 2) my body is stronger and better able to withstand the treatment, and therefore the side effects will be less (or just more tolerable, as the last one was BAD).
