Wow! That kicked my butt! Boy am I tired. They gave me benadryl and it knocked me out. I have a bit of a headache and an upset stomach. Nothing major. Just counting down the hour until I can take more nausea meds then I think I will go to bed.
We got home from the place at about 2:30 and I just laid down on the couch and went to sleep. I slept or dozed through much of the treatment too. I am not sure I will be able to drive myself to and from them if I have to have benadryl every time. I have said the people at Evergreen are so kind. And I have to say it again. The Doctors actually came around and spoke to each and every person in the infusion room. I don't know that just means a lot to me. They know each and every one of us and it makes me feel cared for.
I am glad I had the port put in. It was not a big deal at all today. They just accessed it and drew blood so they could do my blood work, then they started pumping drugs into it. ONE POKE TODAY! NO IV! And I didn't really even feel the poke. I do have to go back in tomorrow afternoon to get a shot. I guess I had to get a shot of one of the meds today to make sure I wasn't allergic to it. So 2 pokes today.
I don't really know what to say tonight. So far so good. I am one treatment closer to being done... Irelynn is in a mood today. Wanting to be held and I feel so weak I am scared to hold her. Zander is sick. He is floating right around 100 for a temp. He just got up on the couch to hide from Frank and ended up falling asleep. My poor baby. If he is still running a fever tomorrow I will take him in. Or try to take him in. He has no symptoms except his asthma cough, so the only thing I can think of is an ear infection. He says his ears don't hurt though.
I think I am going to bed now. Thank you everyone for caring for me. I will try and post over the next few days to let you all know how I feel. They are saying this weekend will be rough so we will see.

Hate to be all big sister on you, but remember that you really aren't supposed to be around sick people. That includes your kiddos. If you think he might be sick you may want to consider nipping it in the bud.
ReplyDeleteHey, I agree with your sis. Watch out for yourself. I have not been on the computer for a while so had lots to read. I love you so much and also my nephew Frank, of course can't forget the little ones too. You are always in my prayers. Kisses to you and the family. Love Karen
