Today was treatment number 3 of 12; after a few simple computations we figured out that that equates to 25%, not bad :) We arrived downtown a little early, Holly's port continued to cause some problems with the blood draws but worked like a champ for the infusion. Holly's blood counts were perfectly normal, which is outstanding considering the crap they are pumping into her. The result is that she just got her normal treatment and does not have to give herself injections to boost the white blood cells.
Holly thought it would be nice to show you all what it looks like when she is getting her treatment so I posted a picture:
The other good thing is Holly is a bit tired but managed to come watch my hockey team, the Swarm, get our first victory of the summer session, yahoo!

Sounds like things are going good, considering everything, you must have a tough body woman! I love how you just always have a smile on your face! If this ever happens to me I will have you to look up to as an inspiration! We need to get together for lunch sometime soon. :)
ReplyDeleteHolly,
ReplyDeleteYou are truly amazing all the things you are doing in addition to treatments! Hang in there, you are still in my prayers!
