Friday was Tina's third chemo infusion. She's got the physical part down, and if they didn't wake her, to verify her identity, before each drug, she'd most likely sleep through the whole thing ... the first medications are steroids, Benadryl, and some anti anxiety meds that knock her out.
She feels good, the afternoon after the treatment, other than being a little tired. The day after, she's almost normal, then 27 hours after the chemo, she gets an injection from a portable device that stimulates her bones to make more white blood cells. That evening, she feels like she has mild flu symptoms, then on Sunday it hits her and she doesn't feel well at all.
By the time I get home today, she'll be feeling pretty good.
One more session of this "bad stuff", and then 12 sessions of a lesser drug left to go.
