Good morning everyone! It's Suzi here typing this blog as Jeanie gets her cancer-fighting army of Cytoxan. While many of us were home drinking coffee and getting the kids ready for school, Jeanie and Mike were dropping the kids off at Lindsay's house (for a party we hear!) and heading to the hospital for a 7:00 am start. It's a full day of treatment today, starting with hydration, Benadryl (to counteract possible allergic reactions), Mesna (to protect the bladder), and Cytoxan. Nurse Leslie is on her watch today, so she's in great hands. The Benedryl has gone straight to Jeanie's head, but she's a trooper! Hopefully, she'll sleep for a bit and let the chemo do its work. As her Aunt Sue wrote today, "the cancer doesn't know who it's dealing with!". Stay tuned later for more updates from Leslie and Beth who will be visiting soon. Bye for now!
Good luck!! will be thinking of you all day!!!! oxoxox
ReplyDeleteBest of luck to you today Jean and YOU LOOK MARVELOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love the haircut too!
ReplyDeleteJean, my heart goes out you, and although these treatments are not going to be a walk in the park(understatement I know) it will only bring you that much closer to being in remission!!! Susi, thank you for ALWAYS being there for my sister, you are an amazing friend(another understatement) and Mike, although this must be the heaviest weight you have carried in your life, you continue to be the rock for your family, thank you for being the husband and dad that you are to my sister and nieces and nephews. I love you and know you are going to beat this!! You are in my thoughts and heart every minute of every day.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Karen
