Mom just completed her third chemo cycle today. I went with her last Monday and my aunt was with her today. We are both so thankful that we are able to get time off of work to spend time with her.
She's been doing really well. Her nausea, acid reflux, and gas appear to be under control with the medicine she's on. She has noticed lately that her sense of smell has increased. Certain smells are beginning to cause her to get a little nauseous and at times sick. Mom has never had a weak stomach with smells, so this is something she's adjusting to.
Her blood work did show that she has anemia. She will be getting shots every other chemo day to help with this. If her levels get too low, which they doubt will happen since she's getting the shot, they will do a blood transfusion.
We did find out today that the doctor has scheduled for her to have CT scan next Tuesday. This will let us know how she's responding to the treatments. We should get those results at her next chemo appointment.
Please continue to pray for healing, patience, and peace as we wait.
