Day 6 of Fast

This morning I weighed in at 134.

We hung out at the breakfast area of the hotel. I enjoyed smelling the treats. Waffles, eggs, muffins, coffee, etc. While it made me want to eat, it was quite resistible and not traumatizing as one might think. We packed up again and went to some caves that had an amazing array of colored sandstone that shed colored sands. Dark reds, deep greens, oranges, even whites. It was very cool and we got many photos.

While I was able to climb the small hill by myself, today I was not feeling as well as I have. This was really the first day that I was not painless and reasonably energetic. I had a pain in my upper abdomen. When I drank more than a cup of water, I felt somewhat nauseous. Not only did I not feel like moving as much, but I felt like drinking less water which should not be limited during a fast.

After the caves, we went to an animal sanctuary called Best Friends. We chilled at a pond at the visitor center and took more photos., then went to pet the horses. Kanyon had great fun.

Lastly, we stopped by the Pink Coral Sand Dunes which are near the property. I decided to stay in the car and hold a sleeping Kanyon in my arms. Everyone played on the dunes for about a half hour.

We returned to the property where we are staying so everyone could see the grounds. I just laid down and rested. Before everyone left, they came back to say goodbye. I did not get up, but after everyone finished, I kinda felt like they were leaving with the thought of me being weak from the cancer and possibly nearer death. That felt a little sad.
