One's up. One's down. Welcome to life's precarious teeter-totter!
Mom is actually doing well. Chemo Day was uneventful. Blood work looked pretty close to fine. Platelets were actually higher than they were last week! Weight is up. Again. Yea! And nausea is a distant memory. Well, okay, not that distant, but at least not currently plaguing her.
And so, Round #2 of this Gemzar cycle is in the bag.
Just in time to take Dad to the doctor. He has the beginnings of pneumonia. Has felt rotten all day and can barely make it out of bed. It's chicken soup for him plus lots of antibiotics and steroids.
Thank goodness mom is feeling better. Her turn to be the giver of meds and plumper of pillows. And maybe, one day soon, they will both feel good - at the same time!
Hugs and Prayers Tonight, Jane
