An Old, Old Woman

Today I look and feel like a 90-year-old woman. My hair is continuing to fall out but a thin stubborn layer is still clinging on to my scalp. I am so tired that I can barely shuffle to where I need to be. Yesterday I could not stay awake for more than 10 minutes at a time. I had hoped that today would be better but I could not even wake up this morning.

Yes, I am whining today ... it's a "poor me" day but tomorrow I'll feel ashamed of myself. I am bloated and in discomfort and the thought of food makes me sick. I have lost another three pounds over the weekend simply because nothing tastes good. I have to force myself to drink to stay hydrated ... it's either drink or end up in hospital with IV fluids. Apple slices are tolerable but even those are starting to make me gag.

I'm off to see what work I can do from the couch at home.
