I slept on and off last night, my sleep while not great is definitely getting better so definitely a chemo side effect – have heard others talking about it as well. The darkness lifted after I wrote and has receded – not fully gone yet, but definitely a lot further away. And had a great day with the kids – I’ll miss them a lot as off to Amman tomorrow. Although honestly, I also need to be back in proper, not remote, work mode, be with The Man and actually have some time to me after this last couple of weeks.

Thank you all for the support – it was rough as hell last night – one of the bad ones. Writing helps so much, as do all of you.

Going to attempt watching something on Netflix before bed – a miracle if I can get past the first 10 minutes without falling asleep….although heading into week 3 post chemo which last time had me returned to pretty much normal in terms of energy etc. Fingers crossed!
