Not feeling so hot.

This chemo has been a little harder than the first one was. It is hard to describe. I just don't feel normal. I am a little nauseated and kind of shaky inside. I have also noticed that it is harder to think of some words and to spell when I am typing. I am more sensitive to smells and even water tastes a little strange right now. I was told that my head would be cold after my hair fell out. Mine is just the opposite. It is hot most of the time. The rest of my body can't decide if it is cold or hot. All of these things are just frustrating. I don't feel well enough to do much yet I don't feel sick enough to sit around doing nothing so I am just not sure what to do. A sweet friend of mine came over today and mopped my floor while I sat and watched. She finished 90% of it before she had to leave. I only had about 5' x 10' to do but I was tired just doing that much. I am very grateful that it is done. It looks so much better.

Mom and Dad left for the MTC today. They will be there until Friday. They were set apart as missionaries yesterday at their house. It was a very nice meeting. I am proud of them for still being willing to go and serve despite what is going on with me. Although we did not know for certain that I had cancer before they submitted their papers I had started the testing. I made the choice to not tell anyone until we knew for sure that I was positive. I did not want to worry our families unnecessarily. I also did not want to influence my parents decision to go on a mission. I know that Heavenly Father knew about my cancer before we did and that if He wanted my parents to go on a mission then they would get a call. If He wanted them to be here with me then they wouldn't have received a call. I know that it would be easier to have them here with me while I go through this but I also know that they are serving the Lord and they are where they need to be. I know that we will be blessed through their service to others.
