I finally had a moment of normalcy this afternoon when I met up with a friend for coffee. It was like old times and cancer talk didn’t necessarily take up the whole conversation. It was just part of the conversation as it’s part of my life. I don’t know how often I’ll be able to go out and just have coffee at a coffeehouse with friends later on, but I cherish this moment for now.
On a separate tangent, I notice that coffee makes my lymph nodes ache, probably because it’s dehydrating. Luckily I don’t crave coffee too much anymore. I drank it more for the social aspect and because, ahem, it helps with the constipation. The nurses tell me that those darn chemo drugs just completely slow your gut down so whatever helps! Choose your evil.
