Phase 1 Complete

Well I am officially done with chemo as of yesterday! The tumor is gone and there is no cancer in my bone marrow or blood! Thank you God!

We came home yesterday afternoon. It was a little rough last night just getting neasua under control, but this morning I'm feeling better. I hope and pray we can continue to keep the neasua under control and that I don't get any fevers. Fevers land me back in the hospital and I never want to go back. So the next few weeks will be spent recovering and waiting for my counts to come up. The next step will to be to do the lymphocytic infusion.

It is SO good to be home, I was counting the days!

Things to Pray For:
  • neasua kept under control
  • counts come up
  • patience-waiting for the counts to come up
  • no fevers-this is a big one
  • continue to gain weight and strength

Thank you for your prayers and support!

Love,
Karina
