A
sample of a 'normal' chemo-brain affected day
Jan G., Yucca Valley,
California
Wake up, check notes written to
myself yesterday... none of them made much sense. As I do with all
my other notes to myself, which don't make sense, I threw them away.
I for got I had a daily radiation treatment, and couldn't have cared
less when the hospital called me to ask why I hadn't shown up.
(Next) I decide I feel okay. I take
a bus to a busy area and… get lost. A nice policeman helps me get
back on the right bus to go home. First, (Before I head for home) I
went to pay my cell phone bills, which I finally remembered I was
there to do.
I get to the counter and had no
clue why I was there, who I was or where I lived. I handed the
customer service person my bag and asked him to see what he could do
for me. He was very patient."
"I count with my fingers and
can't carry on a decent conversation with anyone… I go see my
oncologist who tells me it's my imagination, 3 oncologists have told
me that… "
