After my rash begin to diminish they decided to go through with chemo #3, however no more immunotherapy for me. My mom and sister joined me for this chemo infusion. Since I could only have 2 visitors and my husband was there, they had to rotate and take turns. So my mom was there first. This was hard for her because she knew how it felt to sit in that chemo chair herself. However we turned it into a great little coffee date once again, laughed and chatted. Then my sister joined and my mom left.
Chemotherapy infusions are an odd thing. You walk into this room, full of recliner chairs and IV poles. Especially as a 28 year old, you feel as if you don’t belong there. A room full of 60-80 year olds for the most part. There is a weird feeling you get just walking in the room. As my sister walked in the room, you could see it on her face. She definitely felt that feeling- my little sister does not belong here.
BUT once again, we turned it around. Had our little coffee date, chatted about life and boom another round of chemo done!
I was feeling so good after some chemo days with a boost of energy because of the steroids they give you prior to chemo. So… what do you do when you have a bunch of energy and it’s December in Spokane? Night skiing.
We gathered up a few friends and hit the mountain. With the precautions I was on for high risk of bleeding I had to take it easy, but we had a great time!
Chemo #3 done, NEXT
