Chemotherapy takes its toll; the more you keep doing it, you lose your energy, and it gets more difficult to swallow.

I already had high blood pressure. I have hypertension. And I think the chemo was just too much for my kidneys. And they went into failure. And that was September 12th of 2008. And the doctor rushed me right to the hospital.

I was diagnosed with lupus, and I've been through chemotherapy.

For a couple of days after chemotherapy, food tastes really bland, even the best foods. I haven't been sick, but have been a little tired. I haven't lost any weight.

I recently have had a full hip replacement and a liver transplant, and I'm getting used to the medication.

Chemotherapy isn't good for you.

Chemotherapy is brutal. The goal is pretty much to kill everything in your body without killing you.

I told my doctor I get very tired when I go on a diet, so he gave me pep pills. Know what happened? I ate faster.

My body started to shut down. I got really, really ill. When you're starving yourself, you can't concentrate. I was like a walking zombie, like the walking dead. I was just consumed with what I would eat, what I wouldn't eat.

Chemotherapy isn't easy. I felt very fortunate I wouldn't have to go through that.
