Denise hasn't had much of an appetite today. She has been pretty nauseous ever since last night. Tomorrow she gets a break from chemo, and then on Tuesday they will start her on another type of chemo. She is pretty sad, because diet coke doesn't taste as good. Yesterday she only had two sips. She has been sleepy most of the day.

Yesterday she moved to a new room, and she likes the view a lot better. Last night they could watch the U of U football game from the window.

    The Guest House

    This being human is a guest house.
    Every morning a new arrival.

    A joy, a depression, a meanness,
    some momentary awareness comes
    as an unexpected visitor.

    Welcome and entertain them all!
    Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,
    who violently sweep your house
    empty of its furniture,
    still, treat each guest honorably.
    He may be clearing you out
    for some new delight.

    The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
    meet them at the door laughing,
    and invite them in.

    Be grateful for whoever comes,
    because each has been sent
    as a guide from beyond.
