Evening.

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.

A hard July on nights.

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.

Nights this week.

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

I am eleven weeks behind you and this is the first thing I have read that sounded like my week.

Not a number and not a competition, and still: well done. Quietly.
