That was Traci's facebook status yesterday. She arrived for her first chemo at 9am and finished around 1:15pm. So it was a long process from start to finish. She felt good enough to stop for lunch on the way home but then started feeling tired. As the evening progressed, nausea kicked in and the anti-nausea meds didn't seem to help. Today she says she is feeling better but sticking with water and crackers for the time being. As it's Ryan's birthday (happy birthday Ry!), she took him to Krispy Kreme for his free dozen donuts this morning and then swung by the store to check on a special birthday gift that launches today. As she said "you've gotta do it when you feel good." I guess there is no getting between a mama and her youngest son's birthday. So take that cancer. You're no match for my big sis!!!
Today she goes back for a shot to boost her white cell count. The goal is to keep her immune system in tip-top shape.
you are one tough mama, that's for sure! You are not just going to get through this - you are going to dominate. Get your rest and keep up your strength - sending good vibes and prayers!
