I'm Sorry Chemo

I’m Sorry Chemo

On my last post I was a little hard on chemo.  Okay, really hard.  I feel bad, so decided to write a letter (go along with me here, I really feel bad).   

Dear Chemo,
I’m writing to apologize.  I lost my cool and went on and on and on about how much I hate you.  I know this is not fair.  You are only doing your job.  I know I need to start appreciating you for what you really are…a lifesaving drug.  From now on I will try to accept that the (sometimes horrible) side effects can be overlooked...but only if you promise to do your best to get rid of my cancer forever. 
          Your “Friend”, Angie

There I feel better now.  I know we will never be besties, but this is good for now.

Looking on the Bright Side…I truly am grateful that I have access to medicines and treatments that will make me better.  Also, because chemo isn’t a person I can totally talk about it behind its back and it will never know (wink, wink).
