Well I haven't updated in a little bit so here goes. I finished another round of chemo #8 and thought we were doing pretty good. I was wrong I pretty much spent 10 days in bed after that chemo. I felt so tired and had absolutely no energy. I did go to the xmas tree farm with the kids and made cookies with my sister but it took everything I had.
On Thursday Dec 11 I went to see my oncologist I was pale and had a fever. We decided I would be staying at the hospital to figure out what was wrong. So I got admitted to the oncology wing. It turns out I was neutropenic and my hemoglobin was 74. So we did a blood transfusion. I started to feel a bit better on Saturday they let me out to go to Marcel's xmas party at Rowena's it was beautiful.
I stayed in the hospital Sunday and Monday my fever was gone and my blood counts were slowly coming back up. We decided that we are not going to do any more chemo until the new year. In the new year we are going to try chemo pills. So Monday afternoon I got to go home. Its a good thing too my sister had my nephew on Tuesday Dec 16 at 6:17am 7lbs 10oz 55.5cm Tristan Alexander. I am so happy for them, I spent this afternoon at the hospital visiting with them.
I shall rest and get myself organized for xmas the rest of this week. It is our 5 year anniversary on Friday.
Take care and Merry Christmas.
