That is what I see when I close my eyes.... Flashbulbs going off with each of my heartbeats.
This is my 4th chemotherapy session, and I am fighting not to fall asleep. But, the antihistamines are working, and my eyes are tired and heavy.
I try to stay awake, not because I really want to, but because I am waiting for Gabriel. He went for lunch, and promised to bring back for me a deliciously decadent cheese cake. I am craving it... It is worth not falling asleep.
But I can't help it--my eyes are closing and my mind is shutting down. I am writing in darkness (phrase stolen from the English Patient). This Mexican patient is falling ZZZzzzzzzzz.
