So far so good

First antibiotic intravenous and 5 minutes after I felt sick. But 5 minutes after I felt ok ...for the rest of the day. 5 hours of drip and the chemo finally arrived. Pretty simple. I was expecting some hard and scary machinery, but no, just a simple injection and drip. First liquid is red. 15 minutes of chatting with the nurse explaining what I do in life (she didn't really get it) while she pushed the liquid inside. Coolness to start. Then second and third boringly transparent via a drip. Like water, just more destructive and with curing effects of course. Chemo kills the cancer, but also kills the good cells, reason why throughout treatment there will be good and bad moments. So far so good. If chemo was always like today it would be a piece of cake. It won't though. First visitors... the mission, more than entertaining me, will be to get me food. The hospital cuisine is not that bad and there is choice, but is not enough for my current appetite. As of tomorrow I will start accumulating rations of snacks. Mmmm!! And I am more and more inclined to dispatch someone to get me a steak at Sophie's. I had a bit of warning at lunch time though. I better never miss my chance to choose the food! They come in the morning and in the afternoon so that you make your choice. The guys that came in later were left with no choice, so they had saumon and lamb. All I don't like. It looked like in a flight when they get to your place...the last one in the plane and go, sorry no more choice here you go this nice sandwich of cheese with cucumber. Of to watch some TV now and then sleep over chemo.
