Common Factor

Ok... what does chemo and pregnancy have in common.... CRAVINGS! For the last 3 days, I have been hungry. I know what sounds good and then it's put in front of me. The smell is the worst smell ever. My stomach starts doing flips also feels like there is a brick on the bottom just sitting there. So, I eat a bite - or not - and move on with my day. I'm supposed to try to eat several meals a day so I don't loose weight.

At dinner tonight - it was Zavier's time to cook (so of course Mac'n cheese) - the kids were asking why I wasn't eating. I explained to them that food looks good to mom until it's right there. Lon started to tell them about my cravings when I was pregnant with them. With Keona, I had to have SPICY MEXICAN and with Zavier, CHEESE PIZZAS!

All that talk about pizza!!! I had to have some. So, my "Knight in Shinning Armor" – ‘aka’ MY DEAR SWEET HUBBY - ran to the store, purchase a pizza and brought it home and cooked it for me! The whole time I was praying that I could do more than just look at it - but really maybe eat a piece! PRAISE GOD... GO Donna ... Go Donna... I ate 2 pieces!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you Lon for loving me enough to take the risk knowing that after you got it ready I may just look at it and gag! Thank you for loving me enough to put my cravings first! Thank you ... for being my soul mate :-) Here's to leftovers tomorrow!!
