Irish:
We're on the same schedule...11 days, but I have chemo weekly (carboplatin). Hang in there!!! During chemo, I was always given 2 IV bags of fluid with my Cisplatin. You need this to protect your kidneys.

Take lots of naps. Don't worry about exercising as yet. Remember to practice swallowing no matter how difficult it is now as it will prevent problems later. If you still have salty taste buds try spagetti noodles with butter and salt. If water doesn't taste good, try Vitamin water; vitamins and little sugar.

Good Luck. Most important of all. KEEP A POSITIVE ATTITUDE. It really makes a difference!!!!! It'll soon be over, and we can heal and enjoy the remaining of the summer.
