Chemo Day

It's an old adage but a true one that the greatest fear is fear itself. Today was actually a lot easier than I thought it would be, just waiting for the side effects (hereafter SE) to kick in.

Here's a photo of me (with chipmunk style squashed cheeks) looking scared in the Cold Cap. It was as the name suggests blimmin cold & I had to have it on for 45 mins, throughout the chemo (bout an hour) & then again for another 90 mins. When I took it off my hair was speckled with ice so I have my fingers & toes crossed that it does me some good.
