Gimme Strength

Still Weak

Well she dealt with two items from her chemo, nausea and red blood transfusions. This is a good day since this was ALL she had outside of just being plain ole tired! Emotionally she wasn't despondent, frustrated by current state but not despondent! She was a trooper and ate half of her dinner and chased it with a protein drink. It took a lot for her to drink a sweet tasting drink even if it was good for her.

I realized just how tired she must because she did not give me the "look" after I informed her of my wipe out this morning on my mountain bike. It was a very good spill I took, I didn't get one scratch on my bike, I did remove a large patch of skin on my shin but it will grow back in a couple weeks.

Nadir

Hopefully she won't take too large of a dip in her vitals over the next few days. Her nurses stated that one of her vitals is already on the upswing! Her hair is still staying in place at the moment and she has not complained of her mouth sores returning yet.
