CHEMO 2

Sorry I have been out for a couple of days.  Round Chemo 2 did not go as well as Chemo 1.  Unfortunately, one of the chemo drugs that they hand push through the IV in my arm infilitrated into the surrounding tissue.  This is dangerous as this drug can cause disintegrration of the tissue and scarring which could require plastic surgery.  We didn't notice the seepage until the last of the 3 vials.  They called my oncologist over and she made the determination that a port needed to be put in place for the next 4 rounds of Chemo.  Then, I had to go for three days to receive an antidote to hopfully counteract the seepage into the tissue.  So, there is my update.  Will write more later once I absorb all of this.  Thank god, my sis game me a little boxing glove on Saturday that says "FIGHT LIKE A WOMAN" and that is what I will do.....
