Sam had another treatment yesterday. This time it was fairly quick. I worked in an office while she was being treated, then drove her back home. We did stop for her favorite Chik-fil-a grilled chicken nuggets. We saved a few to share with her sister Taz once home.
Sam is definitely becoming very uneasy when she goes for treatment. She will hide under a chair and attempt to make herself invisible. The Oncologist is very compassionate and will sit right with her during treatment. This round was fairly expensive and wasteful with regards to unused Chemo product. It is what it is. Sam is putting on some weight again, she has gained almost two pounds since we started her second round of Chemo treatments. This is good.... It means her body is winning the fight and not succumbing to the cancer. Her attitude is great. She is bitchy towards her sister, which is good to see. It means she is alert and not feeling bad.
Sam did puke a bit this AM, not long after eating her food. We gave he an additional anti-nausea pill that we keep around during the Chemo treatments. We usually see the worst side effects a few days after the treatment. She seems to be doing fine now.
Nest week, the last in the series of round two treatments.
Go Sam Go!!!
