Ah, purplecat, I'm sorry to hear you are having to deal with stress, during your Treatment. I also really tried to keep my stress down, during mine, but I had it easy, because I only had to work part-time.
I really did try to pamper myself, while I was treating, since nobody else seemed to be stepping up to the plate, with any TLC. I made sure to eat all my favorite foods, and I would take my little dog for a little walk. My cat and dog seemed to sense what I was going thru, they seemed to be the only ones, besides the peeps onhere, and in my Hep C Support Group. My cat would be on one side of me, and my dog on the other, the day after my Interferon shot. They had never seen me in bed, during the day-time, and they took the opportunity to cuddle~
I really like that! Thanks for the reminder.
