Two days of chemo down and three more to go to complete the first round. After the fifth day of chemo, they will continue to flush her system through her IVs for another 12 hours. Once she is through with that, they will be doing some tests. If all goes well,Mom will hopefully then get the OK from doctors to go home. Mom has slept most of the day. Her Port has been a blessing. The nurses are able to come in and change her IVs, give her meds and draw blood for testing while she sleeps. Mom has anti-nausea medication going along with her chemotherapy. However when she does experience any nausea, they have additional anti-nausea medications that give her relief. The main side effect of these meds is they are sedating. So that is why she is so sleepy. Regardless, we are thankful Mama is getting rest. Nothing sounds good to her to eat, but she is eating. Daddy is doing good. Hopefully they will both get some good sleep tonight. Thank you again to everyone for your prayers.
With love,
Carmen
She is beautiful. She is brave. She is loved.
