We have 7 out of 8 treatments done in Delayed Intensification 2! Wahoo! We are done with ARAC shots and have one treatment left until Sadie can start to recover and get ready for Maintenance. I can hardly wait!
With all that I'm looking forward too, these next few weeks could be pretty scary We're nearing the tail end of a really brutal phase and the chemo is doing it's job. Tonight Sadie is going to sleep with an ANC of 700, Hemoglobin of 7.9 and platelets of 23. It feels like I have a little porcelain doll sleeping in the other room. Low platelets scare me the most. Low red blood cells don't slow her down much: she sleeps a little more and yells a little more, but other than that...she's jumps, and runs, and climbs as usual. But she's got bruises all over her body, and it took two bandaids and a big wad of gauze to stop her port from bleeding after de-accessing her. Worst of all, a head bonk could send her to the ER.
I'm a little paranoid right now.
But we're getting there! I actually had a conversation today with Sadie's oncologist about taking out her port during maintenance. That's exciting!
