I CAN'T PEE

You know how need to go to the bathroom sometimes but someone is inside of it? And you hold it in for so long that you start to leak? Think that, except that person doesn't leave the bathroom. And oh yeah, let's add the fact that the leaking never happens either. You keep feeling like your bladder is blowing up into a hot air balloon.

I was at one of the most intensive stages of chemotherapy when I started to have a lot of trouble urinating. Maybe it doesn't sound like a big deal, but it definitely is when you need to have a catheter shoved (excuse my terminology) inside your junk in order to create some flow.

And the odd thing. It's not hard to talk about either. It just becomes another obstacle, like a lot of other things during chemotherapy.

And more things about pee during chemo: its smells chemo. Infact, a lot of me smelled like chemo, including my sweat. Or maybe it was just my nose being unable to smell anything but chemo. I don't really know. And your piss is red.

Anyway, enough of about pee. This chapter ends here.
