July 4th and 5th.............. Update

Within one hour after getting home Friday Charmaine started feeling the effects of the steroids she has to take in tandem with the chemo. For some reason they make her extremely anxious and nervous. Had a very long night Friday night because of this. Saturday it slowly subsided and she began to think and act more normal.

Saturday night she slept and rested well and seems to feel great Sunday am.

We go back to clinic Monday for lab work and back Wednesday for Dr. visit. Will probably check back in then for her 6 days of recovery as her counts bottom out. During that week she will get numerous blood and platelet transfusions. When that is over we will come home for 4 to 6 weeks waiting for the transplant process to get in place.

Hope you all had a safe weekend.

Sam
