Preparing For 4th Chemo

After returning from the 3th chemo treatment, I was feeling good for the first two days. On the third day onwards, probably due to the hot and dry weather, I started to feel easily tired. I can't sit up for long and I prefer to lay down on bed. Usually, I will be watching some drama on my tablet, mobile or doze off to sleep. 

Then after the days of laying on bed, I begin to feel more energetic till today when I can sit up longer to prepare this post. This morning I went to the hospital for the pre chemo blood test. Tomorrow morning, I will be admitted to the hospital for the chemo treatment. While I was still at the hospital, hubby went up to the 2nd floor when I will be admitted to try to book a place in the 2 bedded room. The nurse told him that they have already booked the room for me. After that, we went home.

Egret in our neighbourhood.
 Only can see 1 Egret.
This Egret must be looking for food.
Bauhinia Kockania in front of my house.
It loves hot weather and is now blooming happily.
Found this mural of geese on the wall of a school in Tanjung Tualang.


"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me;
He has appointed me to preach Good News to the poor;
He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted and
to announce that captives shall be released
and the blind shall see,
that the downtrodden shall be freed from their oppressors,
and that God is ready to give blessings to all who come to him".
(Luke 4:18-19, The Living Bible-TLB)

  1. I have never seen an Egret of this kind. The flowers are beautiful. I cannot imagine how exhausted chemo makes you, among other things. Yet you never complain, you are so brave!!

  3. It is strange Nancy but I was thinking, were you tired as I've heard people say/and read after having Chemo, and I look on your page begin to read and it's what you have written about.
    Rest well, and take care......the photos are lovely, glorious sunrise and such beautiful flowers in front of your house, must be a pleasure to see.

  5. May your coming chemo treatment go smoothly and that you stay well after that. You need lots of rest for healing. Your Bauhinia Kockania is simply beautiful. Some plants do very well in hot dry weather.

  6. I have been unwell quite a bit and I also feel lethargic, not much energy. I would just lie down and rest all the time. I am now feeling better but I still don't do much - will get tired if I walk too far. Just go slow, one day at a time.
    I pray your 4th round will go smoothly and successfully, God be with you and your loved ones through all this.

  11. I know it's a tough journey, but I'm confident that you'll get through it. I'm glad to hear that you're feeling more energetic after a few days of rest. I hope that continues, and that you're able to get through your next round of treatment without too much trouble. I love the photos you shared. The sunrises are beautiful, and the egret and the Bauhinia Kockania are lovely. The mural of the geese is also very creative.

  23. Hello Nancy, good to hear from you. Please take as much rest as you need. Thank you for the photos of the egret. I wonder did it fly all the way from another country or was it born locally?

  24. I am glad you get more energy at times. I do have some energy but still have problems with my right ear. Will see what will be found in the CT scan I have on Wednesday. Plants still need watered as it has been warm on Sunday and a bit more today, Tues a bit hotter. I like the egret you saw, interesting bird. Prayers and virtual hugs, Becky
