I can handle the death of my fast-growing cells, but surely my brain can't be included in that category. "Chemo brain" is like "baby brain" in that one loses the ability to be logical and rational. I have heard myself say "your dinner is warming in the fridge" and do things like go to put the milk in the cupboard with the dishes. D'oh!
I am concerned about my increasing vagueness, which gets worse the more tired I get. If I keep going as I am I'm going to need a nanny for myself! Apparently my normal intellectual abilities can return, but there's no guarantee that "chemo brain" is temporary. As with all the other parts, only time will tell.
