Finally....An Update!

Mom has not bounced back after her 5th round of chemo. Eight days after receiving her 5th round of chemo, Mom had a headache and severe nausea. She went to the doctor, who decided to admit her to the hospital for the night to get some fluids in her system. After arriving at the hospital, she discovered that her potassium count was extremely low as well as her blood count. She received two pints of blood and some potassium. She was able to leave late the next day, just in time for Mother's Day. She felt really good after leaving the hospital. However, that enery burst did not last. Her counts remained okay, but her energy did not return. Mom has been getting alot of rest and trying to remain upbeat. We went to the lake this past weekend. She pushed herself Friday and Saturday, and by Saturday afternoon, she was wiped out. She slept all day Monday. She gets tired of sitting around the house. I can't believe that she has another round of chemo this Thursday. I just don't know how she is going to handle it. Please continue to pray for her.
