Yesterday, as I was getting my treatment, I began to smell a foul odor. I thought, "where in the world is that odor coming from?" The odor became so strong I could taste it in my mouth. I was puzzled, and felt sorry for whoever or from wherever it was coming. Over time, I got use to the odor and did not notice it. I was hooked up for five hours...so I had some time to adjust to the unpleasant smell.
My friend and Raegan picked me up from the clinic in the late afternoon, and as soon as I got in the car, Becki had a very strange look on her face. It hit me....." I stink!" I started laughing and asked her, "Do I stink?" She tried to be diplomatic, and finally, she said, "Yes, you smell like....I have no idea what you smell like, but you definitely stink!" We rolled down the windows and laughed all the way home. The smell that haunted me all day was coming from me!
Today, the first thing I did was to ask the doctor and staff why I permeated such an odor and why no one told me! I guess they get use to the stinch...thank God for nurses that have a strong stomach. The doctor told me the byproduct of the infusion along with the toxins my body is releasing caused the odor. Maybe, we can stink the lyme out! Anyway, the laugh was good medicine for me!
I am finishing up treatment, and going to pick up Raegan from her first day of childcare. I am hoping and praying she will greet me with smiles, and had a fun day with new friends.
Love to all!

P.S. My sleeping appears to be better. However, Raegan didn't sleep much last night. Please pray she sleeps too...so mommy can sleep.
