Feb 9 - Sleep, more chemo and feeling a little better
Today started out with sleeping a lot and feeling nauseous. Jessie hasn't been able to eat today or yesterday. The doctor's wanted to make it more comfortable for her so they started alternating anti-nausea medicine every 3 hours to try to keep the nausea at bay. It is working!! She got her second round of chemo today at 2 pm. So far, so good. She is drinking, but still does not want to even talk about food. She chewed gum while the chemo was going in. Some people say they can taste the chemo and the saline so it helps to have a different taste in your mouth. She is having a little belly pain, but that could be due to the fact the not much is moving inside. I am getting ready to leave for the night. Her first night alone!!! We are on day 5 out of 30 for this first round of treatment. There are 4 rounds all together. Let's hope she has a quiet night. Love you Jess.

Jenny,Jess,
ReplyDeleteIf you ever need somebody like me or Bonnie to sit with Jess....just ask! Unless of course Jess needs time on her own. If she wants company ever just say the word and one of us will be there....She's a big girl yes, but if she ever needs us just to BE there Quietly....We can do that too!:) this is a big hurdle, but not insurmountable! We love you
