Good morning all!
I finally got my chemo yesterday! Things went very well. My platelets were 220,000 (over 100,000 is good) Also I didn't need a blood transfusion this week because my red blood cells stayed up. My next chemo will be after our cruise so I will be at the end of my cycle and feeling good during the cruise. Everything happens for a reason... Had I stayed on the previous cycle, I would be getting chemo 5 days before the cruise. I would be feeling nauseous and tired for the flight down and for the first day or so of the cruise. Now I'll be beyond that and be able to enjoy the trip! We are looking forward to R&R for a few days.
Thanks for your prayers and support. Please continue... It means so much.
Til next time :-) Bets
