There is little new to report on Mom today. She is doing about the same as prior days: sometimes more lucid, sometimes less. Today was a bit less. Dad and I had to do quite a bit of repeating and reinforcing what we were telling her, but that's just part of what we have to do sometimes.
Mom is still napping a lot and is very tired. All part of the chemo regimen that she is undergoing.
The continued good news is that she has not experienced any nausea from the chemo treatment that she received earlier. Her eating and appetite remain consistent. She does continue to worry that she is gaining weight, but she's not. Then again, Mom has always been concerned about that. Always.
PT tomorrow, and I expect there will be more napping.

Glad to hear of Mrs. Smith wanting to discuss the newspaper...just wanted to check in and see how she's doing after going to the movies and dinner with my mom who is going through her own battle with chemo through iv and the weekly on/off pill version of it due to low blood counts and things I'm sure your family is familiar with, too. My mom was cancer free for 6 years and it has now come back to her bones and lung. She now has a horrible chest cold and I just hate to see her cough and be see sick. God bless sweet moms and prayers for their journeys this new year.
