Last night Mom and Dad didn't get any sleep. Mom had quite the line-up of IV bags including her chemo to get started last night, so she had nurses in and out of her room most of the night. This morning she had a strong metal taste in her mouth, but it did subside after awhile. She was able to get a nap in this morning to help make up for being up all night. Daddy didn't sleep, but he was happy to watch Mama rest. They had a pretty good day. So far, Mom is not feeling sick. We realize this is only the first day of chemo, but we are thankful for one more day she is not sick. Thank you God!
Please also pray for Kimmy. She woke up with a sore throat on Thursday and is now sick with a bad cold or some kind of bug. (She was not at the hospital on Wednesday, so Mama was not exposed.) We hate it when we can't be with Mama and Daddy, but we aren't taking any chances of Mom getting exposed to even a common cold. She will soon have a depleated immune system and even colds could be life threatening. Kim is doing everything she can to get well as quickly as possible. Needless to say, whenever we can't be at the hospital, we are burning up the phone lines calling each other for updates all day. I know she would appreciate your prayers also.
With love,
Carmen & family
