Progress after Round 1 Cycle 2

Mother has done well this week. We've incorporated more snacky foods like peanut butter, hummus (cholar daal paste), carrots into her daily regimen. Her GI problems are fine, her pain is under control.
This Saturday she went out with my aunt to the mall and other errands. This Saturday is the first day of spring, I hope we can take her out again.

This Friday she has her second infusion of this cycle. After the 26th I think the doctor will evaluate her, maybe give her a CT scan.

We are all very happy to see her doing well, walking around easily.

Also we've decreased her nausea medications so she no longer shakes all the time. She had some problems with that before because she was taking so many medicines.

I am glad she doesn't need to take a lot of medication to stay nausea free.

So overall, a good week. Updates to come after Friday.

  1. Nom nom peanutbutter =-) I'm happy she can enjoy the stuff. Oh and she's going out again! thats absolutely wonderfull, i know how difficult it can be when you're sick and home all the time- the sun and just the outdoors can do wonders on the mood and therefore the better the mood, i've just always noticed the better the outcome. Make sure to let us know how the ct scan goes, inshahallah it will be good. And its a good sign that she is feeling ok without the nausea medications- i hope thats a sign that her bodys getting stronger. I'm so happy that it's been a good week.
