Day Three Complete
Cheryl "survived" her visit today. The treatment took its toll and she finally got sick.
She rebounded quickly and the staff was great keeping her comfortable and at ease.
They also gave her prednisone, Benadryl and something else to help with the nausea. The prednisone is for the redness she's gotten, and the Benadryl is...I think I have this right, for the aching that will be caused by some reaction to the medicine in her bone marrow. When she gets up and around, I'll make sure all of this medical stuff is correct and add better details of the treatment today.
She slept all the way home and is just waking up, three hours after finishing the treatment. Sure seems beat today but still hanging tough.
I heard one of her nurses ask her doctor today is she's always laughing. He replied that yes she has been since the day he first met her. And that's been typical through all of this.
More to come on the medicine details and over the next few days, we'll be detailing our experience to this point as time and memory allow.
Here's her Oncologist: Dr. Friedman click name to see details and center info
Apologies for the cheap photo, its from the phone cam.
