Jessie is a real trooper. She is hanging tough. Yesterday she received her last two doses of the chemo Cyterabine and her first dose of two of Mitozantrone. Only one more dose to go at midnight tonight! She is definitely feeling the effects. Nauseous most of the time and she still has the headache that won't seem to quit. She didn't get much sleep last night which also adds to the problem.
7pm- Jessie is tired of lying in bed. She wants to get up and move her legs, but she wants to keep her head down. We find a solution...a rolling linen basket that is the right height for her to walk but still put her head on it. It worked! She got a little stroll around the floor. The nurses weren't too happy. They were afraid that the basket was too unsteady and not sterilized. We quickly took our stroll and abandoned any thoughts of trying it again.
