Comfort

Today's chemo seemed better than the last time through already. Perhaps it's just becoming more familiar. It took a long time---we got there around 9:45 and didn't get out of there until 2pm. They took the extra tubing and needle out when they were done and Lynn says it feels much better to have the bandage and needle off.

She is already conked out upstairs. I expect to wake her at 8pm for anti-nausea meds and then let her sleep the rest of the night. One bonus for today is that the office won't be open tomorrow so she got the growth factor today. Looks like Sarah & Lynn will have a free day tomorrow---which will probably look like Lynn napping and Sarah working, but it's nice to be able to skip a trip to the doc.

Hello Dear Cousin -- I know that you are likely sleeping right now, however I just wanted to check in here and let you know that we are all thinking about you. Ali has returned from camp and we've shared with her what's going on....your blog is incredible helful in making this "real" for us so far away from you. So, back to the hair discussion...If anyone could pull off the "V for Vendetta" hair "do" it would be you....Also, on the complementary front -- if you can stomach it, 10 organic raw almonds a day, along with the Pom, blueberries, and flax would be fantastic. Love you lots, B'Sarah

She has already tried some pomegranete juice in seltzer. I can get the almonds in the cupboard for her. I also have been trying smoothies---we have frozen blueberries!
