"You are a victim of cancer, not a victim of treatment. Treatment is the answer."
-- Peter Guethlein

Oddly enough, thinking of that quote is sometimes the one thing that makes me feel better about chemotherapy. One may ask "Why in God's name would there need to be a quote like that?" Well, the simple fact is that with most treatments in life, you feel better as you progress through it.

With chemotherapy, you feel worse with every treatment. Every visit is worse than the prior, more painful, more complicated, and it almost starts to seem like chemotherapy is the thing to fear, the thing to avoid.

No energy to write tonight.
