Third Chemo Coming Up

I just wanted to let everyone know that Mom's third (of four) chemotherapy treatment is coming up on Monday, February 1st.

Her side effects continue to be limited to fatigue and a little loss of appetite, but beyond that, nothing else.

She is getting physically stronger by the day and continues to want to do more things for herself. This is a big deal to her and I hope we can find a way to make that work out for her.

Mentally, she is still confused at times and not able to communicate what I know she is thinking. This is frustrating to her and I can see that it bothers her. We're not sure at this point if that is something that will work itself out and get better or not. We will just have to wait and see.

Continued thanks to the ESC Region XI team for their dinner support for Mom and Dad. You just don't know how much this helps and how much we all appreciate it. Thank you.

  1. We will pray for a peaceful weekend as you rest up for your treatment on Monday. Looks like the weather will call for lots of naps and maybe a book to read or a movie to watch.

    Blessings,
    Nancy
