Uneventful Round #10

Shayla's 10th of 14 chemo sessions is going along fine. She was admitted for this session on Tuesday. That kinda through off our schedule a bit since we were expecting to come in on Monday. But guess what? "routine"chemo sessions aren't started on holidays (Monday was Labor Day). So, were are here through Saturday morning.

Today Shayla will be given a total of 2 units of whole blood because her Hemaglobin and Hematocrit levels were low (7.4). She's had one earlier today and will get the second later tonight. That should help perk her up a bit. She has been pretty tired this time around, and no wonder!

Homework, Homework!

I think Mom staying with Shayla is a two-edged sword for Shayla. I make her do her schoolwork. She worked on Geometry today and tomorrow the plan is to do more of the same as well as the science. We still have scripture study to do yet tonight before bed.

I've said it before and Iwill say it again, we are truily blessed. Shayla is making it through this trial with relative few setbacks. We are grateful!
