Our first treatment was kinda rough. The reality of the situation set in...very emotional. Blood work until the end of the treatment, 7:30am til 2:30 pm, made for a loooong day for sure. Most of the day we hung out side by side in the same recliner listening to the ipod and talking about the faithfulness of God. The doctors and nurses decided that her veins were not good enough to continue administering chemo through an IV. We have decided to do a port in her chest. This is a surgical procedure that will take place prior to her next treatment. With the port, she will not have to be stuck continually and risk burning her veins out. She will get stuck only once each visit and that will be for her blood work.
