Chemo #3

Yesterday was the third round of chemo and everything went well! Mom's friend Naomi went with her for the first time. There are a few different nurses who administer the treatments and they are all very nice and gentle... but this time, mom got a new nurse. Apparently she was very rough and did not numb the port enough, so inserting the IV hurt more than usual and mom was pissed! The good news is that she did not have any new side effects or reactions from the treatment! She said the only think different was that she felt the effects faster this time. An hour into the treatment, her chest was congested and she felt pain in her back. She took benadryl and went to sleep when she got home. Today, we took her in for her growth factor shot and she was feeling weak, tired and dehydrated throughout most of the day. Other than that, she is doing great and as you can see in the pictures, she looks great too!
