Karen's Day at Shands

Karen wanted a place for family and friends to be able to see how she is doing each day at Shands. This is how she is making that happen.

Few more hours of chemo

November3

Don: When you are going through something like this, you tend to mark off every little step you take. It is almost 1:00am at the end of Day 3. The night time bag of chemo is a very slow bag though. We won’t be done until around 2:00 in the afternoon. The chemo will continue to work on her body for a few days and then her body should start trying to recouperate from what it has been through. The blood work they do daily indicates that things are going very well in regards to cancer cells lowering in number. The real measurement is still 11 days away though. She still faces a lot once we reach that point but we must first get into remission!

Thanks for coming by and the notes you all send her.
