Well, Week 8 is a bust. My counts are horribly low. So no chemo at all. I will do extra Granix (white blood cell count boosting) injections and then check labs again on Monday. Today is only iv fluids and iv meds.
I am horribly disappointed and feel like my progress is slipping away. I don't want to have open-ended chemotherapy. I want to finish what I started and move on to radiation. Now I'm no it sure how all of this will play out.
It was a tough week too. But now I have a better understanding as to why. There were a lot of side effects and recovery from my nasal cauterizations. I had two return visits here for iv fluids and iv meds. Lots of issues-it's embarrassing.
It has also been a difficult week personally. However, I know this is not the correct forum for details. I have wanted to be a better friend yet have been limited by my severe lack of energy. My prayers have been constant. Sometimes that is the most one can do.
You are absolutely a “better” friend on your worst day than most are at their best. Hang in, Sally. We are with you. Love you.
You are always a "better" friend to those fortunate people in your life. Your expression of love is what you constantly give.
Love you, Sally.
Stay strong my friend….for every thunderstorm there’s a rainbow and at the end of the rainbow, you will find “a pot of gold”. Continued prayers for you, your family and your friends 🙏🙏🙏
