Lack of Energy

 One of the symptoms of my cancer is that I sleep a lot.  Probably around 12 to 15 hours a day.

If you know me you know that I usually never get tired and I used to sleep maybe 6 hours a day at most for years and years.

Sleeping now so much is really annoying.  

Not sure if the body is shutting down and trying to protect itself or the body knows it is dying and shutting down. 

I read somewhere you know when you are going to die.  Your body will tell you.  

For someone like me this symptom is very annoying and being tired all the time sucks.

Cancer and Dying

I got diagnosed with CLL a type of leukemia.  From what I have read lifespan is anywhere from 2 years to 10 years from diagnosis.  

Humm.  When the doctor told me I was pretty casual and I think the doctor was expecting a much bigger reaction from me.  

But from what I see when you have a finite lifespan I have much less to worry about than someone that is going to live for another 20 or 30 years.  

I am very tired nowadays I am guessing it is a side effect of the cancer.  I sleep at least 12 hours a day. 

I think I will have more to say later about getting cancer.
