I want to update, mom is finished with her second chemo treatment as of tomm. she did really well this time, the nurse gave her some samples of some antinausea meds (200.00 ea pill) and they seemed to work. the doctor is not on vacation this time and monitoring her much better. three more weeks of radiation and that should be it, yeah! she is tired and weak but much better.
ok, Ed I have a question, I was reading the posts from SLL and I never really thought about it before, I thought the forgetfullness, and different personality was due to the drugs but I never really thought and I dont think they told us that the chemo or raditation would make permanent differences in the brain. is this something that gets better over time or is it that damaging? does it really make you change? I have noticed she looks older but I thought it was just from being tired. learn more everyday. thanks jamie
