1 down 7 to go

Well, I had my first treatment on Friday. It almost didn't happen. Normally my treatments would be in the Orchard Park office, but they were moving into new facilities that day and I went to Williamsville instead. When I got there, they had no orders and no chemo drugs for me. But... they were wonderful, called the doctor, he sent orders, the pharmacy mixed the drugs and sent them and I started. Friday evening I felt yucky, a little nauseous and a wicked headache. They gave me things for those and I slept really well. Saturday morning I was back up to Williamsville for a shot to boost my blood counts. The rest of Saturday I basically felt like I was either hungover or had vertigo. I slept all day and night. Today, I got up, showered, went to breakfast and am home writing this and then a nap. I'm praying the bone pain from the shot won't happen. I have tomorrow off from school as I planned treatments on Fridays with the plan to take Friday and Monday off. Hopefully my plan will work, but I'm just listening to my body. If I feel good tomorrow, I'm going to get a wig and some hats as the nurses said I will lose my hair by the next treatment or very soon thereafter. Thank you for your continued support. I feel the prayers and good thoughts and it makes this a little more tolerable.
