Almost done again...

Well only one more full day in the hospital and we'll have another round of chemo under the belts...Mom has definitely been feeling the effects this time around. Lots of nausea and tiredness...they've been giving her anti-nausea meds to cut down on it some but she still isn't feeling really great. I was able to get over there yesterday and spend a little time with her but not today and won't be able to tomorrow, so we'll have to wait to see her again after she gets home from the hospital on Sunday.
Dr. Lee says that her blood counts are doing better this time so we're hopeful that she won't need as much blood or platelets as last time. She is also better prepared and will be monitoring things more closely so hopefully Mom won't need to go to the hospital for large amounts, just in the infusion room with a bag at a time.
Next week looks to be very busy with trips for blood tests and check ups again.
