Every night I think, “Okay, I’ll post a few words after the kids go to bed,” and every night I am turning out the lights after saying goodnight and realize I don’t have enough energy to turn on my computer, let alone compose cohesive sentences. Interferon literally is an energy robber. Its hard to explain. Its like feeling the same effort you make when you’re running a hundred yard dash and then looking down and seeing yourself take a baby step. You think, “Geez, is that all I’m doing? I was sure I was going a hundred miles an hour.”

Well, I’ve been back on it since Wednesday. The tongue medicine was the cause of the high liver enzymes and it was easy enough stopping that. Now it is on to Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Christmas off, then Friday and Saturday. Then Sunday off, and finally Monday and Tuesday and it will be OVER.

And then I fully intend to let other things occupy my mind. I just want to keep my head down and push through this last push.
