9:45 am: wake up call.... oops I was supposed to wake up at 8:30 am
10 am: met Jess and walked to the greatest breakfast spot in town: Sabrina's!
10:30 - 11:30 am: delicious omelet, french toast, and coffee
12:15 pm: labs (CBC and chemistry)... unfortunately my white blood cell count, specifically my neutrophils are low "neutropenic" and more susceptible to infection
1 pm: meeting with Dr. Nasta, my great great oncologist, talked about lab results, side effects, and future appointments
1:30 - 4 pm: chemo time in my comfy recliner. Erik took a picture of me... I was tired... IV benadryl is heavy stuff. Throughout the infusion I rested some and started book 2 of the Hunger Games series... while Erik started on "thank you" cards... he's the best! Chemo meds A, B, V, and D went in without a hitch. Now just waiting for them to do their job and do it well.
6:30 pm - ?: great friends bringing me yummy dinner... then it will be time to curl up with the Hunger Games :)
Tomorrow's plan... back to the cancer center for a neutrophil-stimulating injection to get those numbers up so that I can fight infection as well as I can. Then just resting through the weekend, seeing friends, and living life. No other appointments scheduled until April 12th for the 3rd inning.
Oh yea... taking Philly newlywed pictures (since we bypassed the engagement pictures)... possibly on Monday.
Take care friends.
Love,
katy jo
