Chemo Infusion

The Chemo is IN!
The entire infusion only took 30 minutes and Mom is doing fine so far...




Pre-medicated with some anti-nausea and steroids...

The chemo is in that dark bag....that's it, that's all there is.
One little bag is gonna do all the work to clear out Mom's system so the stem cells have a fresh home.


Mom kept busy with popsicles and ice during the infusion. The thought is that if you have a cold mouth and the blood vessels are constricted in the mouth, there is less blood flow...then less chemo exposure to the mouth which can result in fewer mouth sores later.


Plus the woman beat me TWICE at Rummy today...
