Thanks for the update Mara and I'm glad your Mom got the first one down, I was a bag of nerves too and afterwards felt like it was a bit of an anti-climax to be honest. I really hope any side effects will be minimal and your Mom gets through the rest with ease, so glad the scans were clear too!

Thank you everyone! Thankfully my moms side effects havent been that bad, no nausea or vomiting.  She does feel really tired and not herself which she hates.  She is so tired of going for blood work all the time for her blood cell count. Through this process I have found out who family really is and who sticks by your side when something like this occurs.  I have learned that not everyone cares for her like I thought they did and I have also learned that it does not really matter anymore as long as my sister and I are there for her, supporting her and motivating her every step of the way.

God Bless You All and Thank again all for your kind words..

Will keep you posted!

Hi Everyone!!

My mom finally got her last chemo :) Wow it has been some crazy months.  She got a horrible allergic reaction and I was so scared I took her to the ER. I was told it was the injection that was given to her after chemo.  Her hair fell, but shes taking everything so good and I am so proud of her.  We will be able to go on vacation soon and breath a different air then after that is RADIATION for 6 weeks straight every day :/. 

Thank you everyone for your support
GOD BLESS!!

Thanks for the update Mara and many congrats to your Mom!!
