Day-11 to Day-10
The beautiful nurse giving me the anti-nausea meds in my IV.
I was dreading these days! I had mixed emotions about chemo. Fear, anxiety, worry, excitement, relief, doubts,etc... The fear of the unknown of how I would react to the Cyclophosamide(chemotherapy)?
There are 4 people in my group 2. We are the Warriors 2. We are all fighting for better lives and praying for good outcomes! There is 1 guy from Norway, 1 lady from Canada, 1 girl from Liverpool, UK, and me from the USA! It has been good getting to know them and just supporting one another!
I also have to say that all of the carers, too, have put up with all of us! They are taking good care of us!!
I think so far we have all done pretty well in our group! A few issues like headaches, some nausea, but overall we've done quite well!! Yesterday a man in another group had severe nausea/vomiting and the clinic gave him IV fluids! They really take care of us! Today we heard of another girl was vomiting last night. My heart and prayers go out to them. It's amazing how close and concerned you get with strangers! But, honestly, I'm really praying for them, that they will feel better soon!
My friends and family who have been supporting me,encouraging me and praying for me: thank you!! I have had much encouragement from the Word of God through friends. 2 of my friends, Laura and Kelly wrote the same verse! So I think God is trying to tell me:
So, do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Isaiah 41:10
So I will not fear for my God is with me, helping me, and strengthening me!!
Today, I got my first Filgrastim shot from Martin He makes house calls, nice!!
We also go today to meet with Dr. Priesca for an information consult to follow up after 2 days of chemo! Then we'll have the rest of the day free!!
I just want to say "I love you Mom and Dad! And I miss you! We are doing good, and don't worry about us!" We hope you both are well and mom, hope you're feeling better! Praying for you!
Paco carefully removing my IV! He is so helpful and kind!
Love him!!
I'm so glad to see your reports, Kim. It sounds like you are doing quite well so far! That is a PRAISE GOD thing. Praying earnestly for you.
