When I returned home from Christmas break I was amazed at how smoothly things had gone. I felt great. I didn't feel as though I had any significant episodes during the travel. I had even forgotten about the rough patches before I went home and I was enjoying my days.
At my next appointment with the rehab doctor I told her how great things had been going and how I hadn't really had any forgetful moments (that I remember, ha ha). As we talked and looked through things I realized that the streak of unfortunate events happened in the 10 or so days of treatment/post treatment.
This was a huge relief to me!!! It made complete sense. As the chemo continues to build up in my system it gets harder and harder to function during the treatment. It is a natural conclusion that my brain would slow down during this time and struggle to do ordinary things.
I feel more prepared to go into a another round with lower exceptions!
