Chemo Tomorrow

Gail stopped by to visit Loretta tonight. Loretta had some odd spell last night where her heart rate went up and her blood pressue went down. They weren't real sure what was happening, but figured there was too much fluid around her heart. They gave her a diuretic and she expelled a lot of fluid and her status was better by morning.

Her various blood counts were better today, but she had a bout of nausea and was very tired. She's got another round of chemo tomorrow. Gail's doctor recommended she stay away for the first 24 hours after chemo, so we'll head over on Sunday to visit and celebrate Doug's birthday.

I cooked dinner for Gail and I tonight, and Gail thought I did a pretty good job, so I might have KP duty more often! I guess I didn't play those cards right. I should have went for tomato soup and PB&Js!

The blog site doesn't make it simple, but I was able to walk through and post this comment "anonymously" without having to log into my account. Feel free to pass along any messages and we'll get them to Loretta.
