More different chemo

Tweet

Hi My Lot, It's been awhile since I've done an update about momma. Alas - she needs chemo now, infusion kind. It's to control some spots in her liver. The radioactive bead treatment didn't work as completely as it could have. So now this. So, alas - I have to get used to seeing her go from eating full meals, back to picking at barely eating. I never had children. I never wanted them. If my dad made me think I was dealing with an army of tantruming toddlers , my mom makes me think of a pre-teen girl with eating disorder the way we bicker about her getting enough calories. I keep some lo-cal stuff around, for my own purpose, but that's usually what she eats. C'mon, help me out a little here, those are for my fat behind.... This stuff is very unpredictable. She gets treatment every 3 weeks. During the first week she's pretty good, feeling sick a couple days maybe. Then it's 3 or 4 days a week for weeks 2 and 3. I don't know what to make of it, but I guess this is par for the course with this medicine. I admit, I feel fairly overwhelmed. It's hard to see someone go through this and have enough energy to be a caregiver while trying to keep my own head above water. Just as long as the chemo is doing what it's supposed to.... that will be great news. Photo: Pixabay user Albany Colley
