Well, today is the first day after the first round of chemotherapy. Had a decent sleep and got up at a reasonable time. The doctor and his team round the rooms much earlier. So, everything was wrapped up by about 8:15am.
No big news, except the blood counts are beginning to drop. I can tell from the couple of mouth sores that have popped up under my tongue. An irritable place for a sore to develop.
There is a magic "mouth-wash-potion" called "Philadelphia mouth-wash" (perhaps to go along with the cream cheese !) -- this is the secret to numbing and getting relief for the mouth sores.
Whoever discovered it, God bless -- what a relief !
I had one more day of visit from my brother and mother -- which is always nice. Although, with my mother, things get repetitive.
It appears that the fatigue will begin to set-in over the evening and tomorrow -- which is expected. It would be nice to get it over with and proceed to the next phase of the treatment plan !
An occasional snow fell throughout the day -- I pray that we are done with winter and ready to see some warm temperatures.
With that warm thoughts, let me wish you all a good evening and night !
