I am officially half way through chemo now! I've completed treatment #6 today. I feel pretty miserable right now, very out of breath, chest pains and nausea but I have to keep going to take care of the kids (Mark is at work). My white blood count was back up again so that was good. But my blood pressure is still low and I have now caught an illness and am running a fever. The doc said we will just keep an eye on it and make sure it doesn't turn into an infection.
I was really feeling miserable a couple hours ago until my dear friends, Wendy & Chris Schmitt, came by to check on me and bring me a complete dinner, meatloaf, potatoes, bread, bananas, milk, butter, etc. That was wonderful! A friend of Wendy's had prepared all this today and asked Wendy to bring it over to us. That is such a caring, thoughtful thing to do. We really appreciate it! Without my good friends, family & even help from strangers, we would have never made it through this last year! Thank you all so much :)
