Hi whats the chemo treatment like, as i we are not sure what to expect, but i know everyone is different and everycase is different. I have read all the side effects
I have not had Chemo yet..... i had a trial tablet for 2 years as my first line of treatment. This stopped working in June and since then i have had Radiotherapy, this was on my hip and also my lung.... In October i go back and see if i can have chemo.
Have a lovely weekend with your mum, spoil her with lots of hugs and kisses.
Hi it starts this Thursday, but she has a lot of prepatration before then, me and my sister are going with her as she has to be in all day, and all very scary, she is proun to infections so i am trying to get rid of this cold before then, how are you? x
I have a 4 weekly infusion in the Chemo room, Zolodronic Acid This helps strengthen my bones. My treatment is very short 30 mins or so but i do see people who have to have long treatments and after reading the paper and having a chat they seem to just be looking around at others or shutting their eyes and having a sleep, with the two of you i am sure that you will have lots of stuff to talk about and also get into conversation with others who may also have the same kind of cancer and treatments as your Mum.
I know they hospital try to make the chemo room nice and some have telly or radios to have some background noise, I think if you take a light thin type of blanket/shawl to cover her lap/legs it would be a nice comforting extra, then if your Mum has a snooze she will be all cosy.... just a thin one though cos it can be warm after a while. Well good luck with Thursday, the start of getting your Mum some help x Thinking of you all, love Deb xxx
Well just wanted to say good luck for tomorrow, hope your mum gets some sleep tonight and all goes well tomorrow xxx I am having a ct tomorrow to see whats going on. Thinking of you all, love Deb xxx
