Chemo Day

Mom started her second half of chemo today. These treatments are a little different and she has to take Benadryl with them so she is exhausted before she even gets home. On top of that, after chemo today her blood pressure was only 84/55. Normally she goes in for chemo at about nine and is home by about four. Today it was another couple hours just waiting for her numbers to rise and pumping her with fluids. I had to leave right after she got home but I'm pretty sure she has slept most of the time. Kelsey came home tonight to help with everything this weekend. I've had wonderful people help with volunteering for meals on Friday,  Saturday ans next week Weds. The Appeldoorns brought it again today, they havent missed a chemo day and I have a thank you shout out to them for that :) We really appreciate everything and everone and we just ask that you keep it in your prayers that we will have nice weather tomorrow so the parade won't be canceled and dad will be able to have his surgery Friday. He met with another doctor this morning to discuss his knee and he needs surgery but they do not even want to start that process until he is done with the Hernia surgery first. With the new chemo it will be interesting seeing how mom responds to it the next couple days. Typically Thursdays are okay and Friday is the worst day but with today being bad I think the scheduling is going to be a little off. I hope everyone is enjoying their tulip time and staying safe :)
