Hi all!
I hope if this is your first visit that you go find “Chelsea’s story” to learn more about her genetic disease Neurofibromatosis and get up to speed on what’s going on.
After today’s treatment it (Thursday, June 14th) marks the completion of day 5 and week one of her 5 week, 5 days a week radiation treatments.
She’s tolerating the radiation very well and doesn’t have any adverse side effects quite yet. We meet with Dr. Kuhn today.
Tuesday’s are Dean’s (my hubby and Chelsea’s step-dad) day to take Chels to radiation and he took some great pics that she posted on her Instagram photo journey through this process. You can find her on Instagram at “teamchelsaroo” and check out this process through her point of view.
Aunt Carrie took her yesterday and we decided to try something new for some nausea she’s been having and some pain that we were having a hard time managing. Chelsea was SUPER brave and tried acupuncture!!! And guess what?! It worked GREAT! Big props to Chels for overcoming the fear of it hurting. It was a very relaxing and great experience for her! Thanks to Aunt Carrie for being with her and taking her to those appointments.
Team Chelsaroo shirt are now available to order for the next 11 days. If you’d like to be a business or family sponsor, please contact Carrie at ckrainock@gmail.com
