1/19/2011

Yeah!!  We got through our first day of chemo.  Mom's hanging in there like a real trooper.  Had a confusing morning, they thought maybe she had another cancer in her ovaries but it ended up being the colon.  We also had a glimmer of hope when they told us that "maybe" her liver cancer is not as bad as originally thought.  I assume that bad means less aggressive.  We will find out more on the 31st of January which is her next treatment.  She met some nice people in there.  The nurses are all so nice and the other patients are very nice and it is comforting for Mom to have others to talk to who are going through the same thing.

She has to wear a fanny pack with a mobile device in it that delivers more chemo to her system for the next 48 hours.  That will be the most cumbersome part of this deal right now but she seems to have a good attitude about it.

Mom is right by my side and sends her love to all and thanks for all the prayers.
