"Chemo can be a long process. It's important to listen to your body and rest when you need to. Ginger tea can help with nausea, and having a support system to talk to can make a big difference. Some people find it helpful to organize their schedule around treatment days, knowing they'll need a couple of days after each session to rest and recover. Keeping a journal of how you feel each day can help track patterns and prepare for the tougher days. Setting up a cozy, comforting recovery space at home with all essentials within reach can also be beneficial."
