Yesterday I had my first Chemo treatment. The meds they used are a combination called FEC for breast cancer. I took two ativan before I went and pretty much slept through the whole thing. Brian, Michael and Nicole accompanied me, which I was grateful for. The rest of the day, I slept off and on between eating, drinking and sort of watching a movie.
Today, I had my port put in, a permanent IV line for receiving medication and also for blood to be drawn from. This will reduce the number of needle pokes I get over the coming year.
Good news today: Brian's niece, Jamie and her husband had a baby boy named Edward! Both mom and baby are doing well.
In June of 2011, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I will be using this blog to update friends and family. Feel free to visit often and leave comments. Thank you all for your continued prayers. “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” (Matthew 7:7)
