When you have to feel so weak and sick, it's hard. Chemo affects how you feel, your memory and emotions. Putting too much stress can defeat the purpose of chemo, so relaxing is the best thing to do. I had my drs freaked out at me because I tried to go back to school too soon and found out the hard way I wasn't ready physically. The hardest thing was leaving school in LA, falling behind in all my dreams...after everything was done...I had to pick up the pieces...slowly. The professors were really sympathetic and understanding. They won't look down on you for it. They'll support and root for you. :) I'm still dealing with it..I'm mad but understanding at the same time that I had to put things on hold because I feel so left behind at times. Life happens though...and if you're determined enough, you'll catch up and you will finish school. As my mom kept telling me..."school will always be there". Just get better 1st! :)MorbidKittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09638246506624465106noreply@blogger.com
