Right.

Sore at the injection site for about ten days, a small firm lump under the skin. The pharmacist looked at it, was unbothered, and told me to move further round next time.

The nausea has a shape to it now. Thursday teatime it starts, Friday it peaks, Saturday afternoon it lifts. Once I could see the pattern it stopped feeling like something happening to me at random.

Very tired. Not the kind of tired a nap fixes. I slept nine hours and woke feeling as though I had been awake all night.

Right, that is enough of that.

Take the win. Two flights of stairs is two flights of stairs.

I have read your journal from the start this week. You have come a very long way and you are allowed to notice that.

Reading this at half past six with a cup of tea and nodding at every line. Thank you for writing it down.
