Minor Side Effects

So i have been feeling so great and energetic all week, meeting Malden friends Thursday night and a Zamir friend ( Susan R) on Friday for lunch that it is so easy to forget that I am in treatment for breast cancer.   While i had complained that it seemed to take forever to actually start treatment, now I feel like it all happened in a heartbeat.  It has been about three months, I guess, since that first mammogram. 

Today was the first time all week that I felt any side effects. I was planning to go to services and had showered and dressed. ( it is easy to not realize I need to shower without having morning hair. Most of the time I swear that’s why I even bothered showering half the time) 

Unfortunately while having some of Susan’s delicious pumpkin bread, i had to take a break for some bathroom olympics.  So I decided to just log on to TBI and watch their stream. They were already doing the Torah service by 10:30 anyway and truth be told, I prefer it watching online. I also had some low grade lower abdominal cramps which I was told were side effects. I felt them all day. 

So I stayed in all day and puttered around.
