Chemo number 4 was yesterday. Not the smoothest. Today was the followup to get the bone marrow stimulant. Carli gave everyone a bit of a scare by having an attack of pain in her chest and difficulty breathing, so we got to visit Wooster's ER for an hour and a half. Good news is all her vitals were ok the whole time, her ECG is fine, chest radiographs were clear and even showed signs of lymph node shrinkage compared to prior pictures. Bad news is no conclusive evidence of what caused the pain. Carli and the cat are having a shedding competition but so far the cat may be winning ( or would that be losing?). Carli's hair is still thinning but she expected to have nothing after the second treatment. She asked Angie at Quintessence when she should just buzz it off but that is not yet. So next time you see Carli, she may or may not have her hair. Her big drive at the moment is to get back to Camp Friedenswald this weekend to be there for High School Camp next week. She says she actually takes breaks now when she is working there (unlike past years) and the director is very supportive. Continued thanks for everyones' prayers, notes, food, etc. Next scheduled Chemo is for Monday, July 2nd.
