Special prayers for you today.
How’s the chemo going? I’m praying for you to feel well, and accomplish important things this week. And of course, I always for a cure.
I am starting week 3 of cycle 1. So far I feel pretty good.
Today I go in for a blood test. Next Tuesday I start cycle 2.
BTW, I was doing some thinking. 10 years ago today I had my quad bypass. 10 years ago last Sunday was my heart attack. I was on FR at the time.
Looks to be today is a milestone of sorts.
Update:
Back at the Cancer Center. Round 2 starts today. How about that - FReeping on the drip!
The first round of Chemo went rather well. The only worrisome event was on day 3, I had a bout of Bradycardia. (slow heart rate) My Cardiologist adjusted the beta-blocker and that helped. All other side effects were minor. I hope it stays that way. There is someone I know who went through it and side effects got worse as he progressed.
Well, I will be FReeping from here for the next 4 hours.
Sounds like your care providers are on the ball! Godspeed.
Keep up the good work. Hugs and prayers sent your way.
Continued prayers for healing, peace and courage.
(Looks like the peace and courage prayers already kicked in, just waiting on the healing.)
More prayers.
Hugs for you Petruchio, looks as if you are in good hands.
Been there, done that.
Hello my FRiend. Good to hear from you and that you are doing well so far. Prayer that things continue to go as well. Modern technology is wonderful isn’t it? Lol. Typing this message via my cell phone and loving it. 8D
Well, this sucks.
Infusion finished, BUT, the steroid I am on did all sorts of nasty things to my blood sugar levels. Now I am being sent to the ER with a blood sugar reading of 600+ mg/dL.
Not sure when I will post again, it won;t be until I am released.
Prayers up, FRiend.
Oh my! Prayers up for you.
Well, darn it. Prayers continue.
I wished I lived near you, Petruchio... I would bring you a nice plate if you had to stay during Thanksgiving. You are in my daily prayers and you are just awesome. Hang tough! Hugs, Mom
I’m sorry. Prayers up.
Keep your Faith in the Lord my FRiend and we will do our part on this end...
Prayers for your return to good health.
Hang in there my friend there are many prayers going up for you.
