Well, we're back in Buffalo. While this isn't exactly where Mom would choose to spend her time, we all know this is what's best for her right now. We're just happy for the opportunity to get her better.
Tomorrow probably isn't going to be the best day. It's the most rigorous of treatment days for Course 2. Mom will have interthecal chemo (in her spine) and have to lay flat for an hour. She also be administered a chemo drip for about 3 hours. Between the bloodwork, waiting, talking to Dr's, waiting, asking questions, waiting, chemo, waiting, more poking and prodding, waiting... and a few beeps from some random pole for good measure... we're expecting it's going to be extremely long. The good news is that once tomorrow is over with, she has a lighter schedule until day 29 of Course 2.
Dad, Mom and I are settled into the DoubleTree, which is connected right to the hospital. That means as long as we are here we won't have to go outside and brave the elements. The room is already set at about equator degrees (I'd say between 90-92?) so I have a feeling it's not even going to be Winter this year as far as Mom's concerned.
Mom hopes everyone had a nice weekend and has a good week at work. We'll update you tomorrow to let you know how everything went.
Love,
Amy
