This Is Different

Recovery Road

So far Rene has not experienced any setbacks with her post-chemo phase. She met with her oncologist and he informed her that she was progressing well. She did a shot to boost her white blood counts and she is not required to have this done daily.

In two weeks she will visit her oncologist for a follow-up checkup and they will perform a P.E.T. scan on her. The scan may occur prior to her visit based on scheduling availability so she may get a pre-Thanksgiving gift with the information.

She is beginning to do a bit more around the house such as laundry and light cleaning. So far she has been able to have a full day without being exhausted by it. She has been cleared to drive by her oncologist and she has not gotten behind the wheel yet. This will probably occur within the next two weeks.

She really enjoyed having the kids come around for Halloween this year. Having them get candy from me was a bit funny for her. Children don't care what's in front of them as long as the treats make it in their bags! She really loved seeing the young babies in their parent's arm dressed up!
