2nd Chemo Session

Had my second chemo session. It went pretty smoothly. Took about 5 hours this time vs. the 8 hours for the first session. Once again I pretty much slept through the whole process.

Jim and I got a sandwich after the chemo....then I went home and feel asleep on the couch (felt more exhausted after this session than the first). Woke up around 6pm...Jim made me some yummy chicken soup and a grilled cheese sandwich.

I am scheduled to get a shot on Saturday to help boost the bacteria fighting part of my white blood cells. The doctor said some of the side effects could be that my bones will feel like they are hurting (apparently the shot stimulates the blood marrow) and I could get a low grade fever the night after getting the shot. Sounds fun!
