Dapper,

I heard the chemo fog/chemo brain can hang around for as much as a year afterwards. Its frustrating to forget midsentence where I am going. lol It feels like its a bit harder for those close to me, sometimes.

Didn't think about the steriods associated and why I felt like I was being such a bitch yesterday. hmmmm I was having a low day yesterday, too.

And I made the decision, if it gets too much working that I will stop, too.

Prayers to you too Dapper

At some point along the way I decided that was not the best thing. I had a decent amount of agitation due to the steroids in the chemo, so I wouldn't go back to work after my chemo in the morning.

Andrew - I have heard it called "chemo fog". Even though I finished my chemo 2 months ago, it is still hanging around. Yesterday and today it was especially bad, for some reason. It is getting better though, as you said.

Hang in there, Debby! One day at a time!
