The Twelve Days of Chemo

In honor of the holiday season and my last chemo treatment next week on December 29th, I've written a little spoof:

On the twelfth day of treatment, my chemo gave to me,

Twelve days of nausea,

Eleven missing tastebuds,

Ten toes a'numbing,

Nine Benadryl naps,

Eight veins a'hiding,

Seven food aversions,

Six days of recoop,

Five minute showers,

Four hour visits,

Three eyelashes,

Two missing eyebrows,

And one fuzz-covered, bald head!

Happy Holidays!
