Chemo Schmeemo

In talking to Mom yesterday we mapped out her last legs of Maintenance chemo till the next PET scan.
She’s got 2 more to go!
One today… and then on Wednesday some Fluids.
Another one at the end of this month or early next… and then on Wednesday some Fluids.
Pet Scan on the 19th of August
Results on the 26th of August

The Nurse stumbled upon a novel concept at her clinic visit yesterday that if they gave her fluids on brink of her sickness from Chemo that it might subdue it and she might not get as sick as she normally does. Usually on Wednesday she starts feeling icky, and by Saturday she can barely get out of bed she feels so gross. So this go-round they’re going to try to give her fluids on Wednesday hoping that it will help her body along so that Saturday never feels like that.

Here’s to the 2nd to last round of Chemo….

Happy Friday everyone!
