Living with Chemo - Day 2

Cheryl woke up with a bit of flushing on her face but other than that had no noticeable side-effects from the chemo. This is a definite praise for us. As the day wore on, she did tire a bit but this is not significantly different from from what she's been experiencing over the past three months.

Michelle and the kids drove Cheryl to our family practice doctor for a follow up check on her Coumadin level. It is 4 which is still too high. She will go back next Monday for another blood test to see if she needs a dosage adjustment.

Jason and Sharon will be dropping in later tonight for a short weekend visit. We'll have everyone except Chris and Dylan packed into the house. It is good to be able to spend time together as a family.

Pray that Cheryl continues symptom free from the chemo and that it does what it is designed to do.
