Poem
Chemo Session 3 – Aborted For those of you who are keeping track I went up for Chemo – they sent be back My platelets didn’t do so well They sent me home to rest a spell I’ll have to try again next week I hope my platelets reach their peak If not then we’ll just have to see When I can get session number three Mdailey 6/15/11 Chemo Session 3 Chemo 3 just one week later Found me just not a spectator They took my blood, I met the goal The chemicals are on a role I sit and ponder as it stings I wonder just what this one brings Mdailey 6/22/11 Chemo Number Three I finished chemo number three It wasn’t all that hard on me Today I tried for chemo four They sent me home just like before My platelets once again were low My blood recovers way too slow They said another week of rest Would once again be for the best I kind of think they’ll change my plan To something that my blood can stand Maybe three weeks in between Will be the norm – will be the scene But let’s get back to chemo number three That wasn’t all that hard on me My stomach rumbled up and down As if I’d been spun round and round And just like clockwork came the cramps That go along with the bathroom dance The jaw that hurts when I first chew The cold that tingles lips came too And this time there’s a brand new thing That chemo number three did bring My left hand feels like it’s asleep A tingling feeling way down deep But chemo three is in the book I wonder now how four will look Mdailey 6/6/11
