Why the title for this blog?

I struggle with staying positive in the sight of adversity. It is very easy for me to dwell on the negative aspects of my situation and miss the blessings that come from the trial and so I will use this blog to help me stay focused on the rainbows of my life.

Round 5; Day Two

I think today went pretty good. I didn't get my headache until this evening, usually I get it during chemotherapy. My nurse was kind of concerned because my heart rate dropped to 54bpm but I told her that when I get tired it does go low. My normal heart rate is around 64 bpm.
Chemotherapy always makes me tired and so when Molly brought me home the first place I went was to bed. Other than the headache I'm feeling a little tired tonight but I am not in any other pain. I get premeds for nausea so I am okay there and I have medications to fight off diarrhea should that develop. I can take acetaminophen for the headache so I won't have to deal with that much longer either.
All in all, I'm doing well.
