Making It

I am making it but still not feeling great. The mouth sores are still bad, but they are slowly getting better. Today is the first day that I have been able to drink the liquid full 16 oz bottles of water. Before today, I could only handle a few sips or so and would have to stop.

I am trying to eat more solid foods, but mashed potatoes is about the only thing I can eat. The herbal tablets we got seem to be the thing that is really helping my mouth, but with my immune system so compromised (thank you chemo), it makes it difficult for your body to fight a simple thing. I am hoping I will be back to normal in a few days. Pretty much all I have done the past few days is slept all day.
