As a matter of fact.....growing up I distinctly remember when I said I didn't feel well....my mother ( italian through and through!) would say..."Have something to eat!...You'll feel better!" ...and usually, ( imagine!) I DID! Gosh..looking back it's a wonder I didn't end up 500 lbs!<BR/>Eat when you feel good...eat when you don't...have a snack before you go to bed....a little something with your coffee...sigh!<BR/>So..yes...I can imagine eating during chemo...although I can't even imagine chemo...even with your descriptions. You have my thoughts and prayers as you make your way through this journey, Lynne! HEY! ( is for horses as my nonna would say..)....speaking of journeys.....you will be on your journey to brighter skies and warm breezes tomorrow! yaaaay! ( said while jumping up and down clapping my hands in glee). Have FUN!<BR/>hugs,<BR/>CoriAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32309235.post-19287017456221967972007-03-07T21:28:00.000-05:002007-03-07T21:28:00.000-05:00hey lynne- leroy's got nothin' on you girl !!!!- n...hey lynne- leroy's got nothin' on you girl !!!!- nice description of the grownup chemo room-<BR/> at the jimmy find, each kid has a bed (or a recliner of you're old enough for the teen room- lexie has decided to use the chair and the teen room exclusively)- there are curtains there too,- most people use them- the kids all have tv/dvd players- they just can't read that well- and they mostly eat, too- nothing else to do-<BR/>what is curious to me is that the anti-nausea meds usually don't last the afternoon- the kids usually barf by the end of it all- hence the prolific pink buckets (they're actually basins, but who's splitting hairs????)- maybe they give you grownups better stuff- just kidding-<BR/>and by the way, i think you're wise to seriously consider the port idea- but do talk to lexie- she's the expert-<BR/>anyway- thanks for sharing and HAVE a GREAT TIME IN THE SUNNY LANDS !!!!!! please take great pics like last ime so i can live vicariously though you for this one- it's my dream vacation you're embarking upon- i tried to get lexie to go to ST. JOHN for her makeawish, but it was back to the princesses AGAIN !!!! live it up for me, please??? <BR/>THANKS !!!!<BR/>love you-<BR/>aliceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32309235.post-17846462038524891902007-03-07T21:03:00.000-05:002007-03-07T21:03:00.000-05:00Thanks for sharing, Lynne.

I tend to read your posts thinking they would make a wonderful book, but with this entry especially, I'm thinking documentary!<BR/><BR/>Wishing you all a fabulous vacation filled with fun, relaxation, and a sense of peace.<BR/><BR/>Love and blessings,<BR/>LindaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
