quickie chemo

Today was day 2 of outpatient chemo. This one was just a couple of shots (one was chemo and the other was to counter balance some of the chemo treatments). This entire appointment took less than 10 minutes and I think most of the upcoming appointments should be similarly fast.

Thus far, she's been feeling great. She felt up to going shopping today (and managed to spend a couple bucks). It sounds like her and my mom have spent some time bonding lately. Tomorrow will be a bit of a busy day for everyone. We have a few appointments and then we're bringing TJ back out to Jersey. We're looking forward to seeing him and I think Anna's parents will appreciate the break. Plus, tomorrow's treatment involves the spinal tap type procedure, so I think that one is going to take a little more out of her.

Nothing else major going on with treatments, status, etc. Her hair is starting to come back a little bit. It's kind of like a 5 o'clock shadow, so we'll probably have to re-shave it as it's definitely not going to grow in thick at this point. It definitely is nicer to be writing these from home, rather than the 5300 unit over at St. Barnabas though we do miss Kristin, Christine, Carol, Pam, Bina, Rosemarie, Ginny, and about 20 other nurses.

We heard from Kathleen today and she did great in her race. She sent through a couple pics. I'll try to get them uploaded tomorrow.
