No chemo today. Mike had no school because of the ice and snow from yesterday. Lounged around in pajamas and slept.
I did, however, have to go back to the unit to get a shot to build up more white blood cells since the chemo is destroying the good cells as well as the bad. Mike drove over with me and THAT shot only took a minute or two, but cost us $7 for parking and $1 tip. I gotta find some meters for that quick visit.
Next visit to the hospital is not till the 21st when I have to go for another scan as a follow-up to the ECHO CARDIOGRAM that was taken on Friday.
Echo cardiogram -recording of the position and motion of the heart walls or internal structures of the heart by the echo obtained from beams of ultrasonic waves directed through the chest wall.

Two Cents from Dr. Suess...
"I have heard there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead and some come from behind. But I've bought a big bat. I'm all ready you see. Now my troubles are going to have troubles with me!"

I am impressed, Betsy. Now I know a real Blogger. I have a friend who goes to Pennsylvania Hosp. frequently. Their best parking suggestion is to use the Parkade on the left across from the main enterance. 15 min. meter can be VERY expensive if you out stay your limit. Good luck and keep blogging. Bob B
So glad that everything went well this first week. Let's hope it stays this way. The blog is a great idea for all. You're in my thoughts.
