Why I can't hate you, 2016.

"I'm going to leave before I get my feelings hurt," Bob said. There's a reason I haven't been updating, and it's that this part of my treatment is, well, really boring. As promised, Taxol doesn't seem to take as huge a toll on my body as the AC treatment did. I go once a week now, but other than the 1/2 day I have to take for the appointment, I don't miss any more work. There are some not-so-great things about this part, like bloody noses, intense sinus pain and pressure, eyebrows and eyelashes falling out, of course the fatigue.  There's a new side effect to add to the list which led to Bob's comment yesterday: being really irrationally honked off for no apparent reason at everything . I got mad at the dog, the weather, HGTV (yeah, the network), the stupid coffee pot, the staticky clothes coming out of the dryer. Bob knew this wasn't directed toward him, and I didn't really have control over it, we even talked about it....
