Here’s a fun sloth fact. Sloths only go to the bathroom once a week.

This is TMI, but my digestion after Wasabi has been sloth like. Its a common side effect that I’ve experienced. But this cycle I finally have a handle on it. So I’m feeling good. I’m tired but my digestion it working well this time.

So, back to sloths. They live high up in trees and only come down once a week to poop. Last year Jeff and I were on a nature walk and we saw a couple taking a photo of a sloth at the bottom of a tree. They were all excited but I just thought “Let that poor sloth have some privacy.”

This photo is from Google but shows that even pooping they are cute.

Things are good today. This little area by the pool has become my living room away from home. I hung out here while Jeff did laps.

Then I rested all day so I had the energy to go out in our building with Rolf for his bday.

The steroids they start the Wasabi with for anti nauseous make me super energetic. You can see the crazy in my eyes and this was before coffee.

Before Jeff even finished making coffee I had planned out our entire next year.

Each time the effects go away faster which according to Jeff is not a bad thing.

Today they lasted until lunch when we walked over to a close by cafe for salad and empanadas

And then I was back to normal and read and napped the rest of the day which was great.

I’m always a bit nervous beforehand which is weird because the infusions really are not bad.

Jeff, Sven and I started the day with a bowl of overnight oats. When my friend Alison told me about overnight oats years ago it changed breakfast for me.

The nurses were really into Sven today which made him feel like a celebrity.

He had me stay hydrated which meant lots of trips to the bathroom wheeling my IV stand.

That is the stand behind him. The bathroom is a few steps higher than the infusion room with a ramp to wheel up your IV stand. On the way out, the ramp ended at a chair with a women getting Wasabi. Each time I was convinced I’d lose control of my IV stand and me and my stand would end up in her lap. But it was ok.

somehow never noticed the chair reclined until today.

Now I’m resting and have Wasabi bed head. Also thinking about pop tarts.

No matter if you think this glass glass is half full or half empty the important thing is it’s HALF something.

I’m officially halfway through the Wasabi including the actual infusion and side effects. My bloodwork looks good and I’m ready to get Wasabi tomorrow!

This glass has celebratory Emergen C. I am going to have a celebratory gin and tonic tonight. But wanted to celebrate while it was still light outside.

Thank you to all of you!!! I could not have gotten this far without all of you. Your messages,texts, calls, im’s it means the world to Jeff, me and Sven. ❤❤❤❤
