D108: That happy feeling when your appetite is back!

When you are going through chemo, you lost your appetite for days, sometime weeks. Sometimes, even the smell of food make you sick. Sometimes, you forget what it feels like to feel hungry and the day you do, you’ll jump in joy. I have 4 days to eat up before I have to go back for chemo this Wednesday. I’m still not 100% but definitely feeling so much better.

A wise Indonesian priest said to me,”For as long as I still can eat, I know I’m still well.” It makes me think that I’m going to be well again when I can eat.

So smile and feel blessed when you feel hungry today!

The little things that we take for granted.
