here we go again

Here we go again! Today started by leaving at 9am so that we could first go to the pharmacy and pick up her meds. Then we waited at the office for over an hour. Bummer. She hates to be there in the first place, and then the waiting is terrible! Thank goodness she had also taken a Phenergan (for nausea) and it made her sleepy. As soon as they cleaned off her port and were drawing her blood, she got sick and vomited. It was no fun from then on! Her chemo was given without a hitch, she slept through a lot of it. It is so weird, though, how she can taste her meds and the stuff that they flush the port with. She immediately woke up when they were flushing it just from the terrible taste in her mouth! She has tried candies, mints, food, but nothing helps.

Tonight the nausea and bloating are making her miserable. She did have some minutes of feeling not quite so bad, but then it hits her again. Her hair is really thin, but she still has just enough that some shows outside of her bandana. She still looks cute!

She is already dreading going tomorrow for her meds and shot. She said that she knows that it is a mental thing, she tries to pray, listen to music, talk...but nothing helps. But, the good thing is...this is hopefully half-way through her treatments!!!!!!!!!!
