Drug withdrawal

Starting tomorrow 2 or the "recovery" drugs I am taking will be decreased. Yea! The drugs bring about nausea and fatigue. Each day starts at 4:30 AM with french market coffee, the newspaper and a brisk 6:00 neighborhood walk. I wear my space age mask enjoy the moon through the trees and watch the sun rise. Then work begins. Once home it's drugs, a 2 1/2 hr. IV and the struggle with breakfast. By 1:00 PM fatigue takes over. It is time for a 2 hour power nap. Obviously donor girl is a morning person who appreciates daily brain rest. Late afternoon it is time for the other 2 1/2 hour IV. By 8:00 PM it is nite nite. The journey to become drug free continues. Onward.......... SS
