Journal entry by Nick Pudenz —
WE ARE ABSOLUTELY FUCKING DONE WITH IT!!!
✅ DONE WITH ADRIAMYCIN CHEMO
✅ DONE WITH CYCLOPHOSPHAMIDE CHEMO
✅ DONE TAKING TWO PRESCRIPTIONS
✅DONE GETTING FILGRASTIM SHOTS IN HER STOMACH TO BOOST WHITE BLOOD CELLS
✅(ON MAY 5TH) DONE TAKING ELIQUIS FOR THE BLOOD CLOT
Give her 2 weeks to recover, and then it on to the next... 12 consecutive weeks of Taxol will be the next hurdle.
She had her last AC chemo treatment this past week on Wednesday. Like the previous treatment, it kinda kicked her ass during infusion. Nausea, dry heaving, just a nasty gut punch. This time they stopped infusion, and gave her a pretty powerful nausea medicine. After a short break and plenty of fluids, they completed the infusion. This round has been similar to the last... more tolerable. She can eat more normally, she's more alert and coherent, she can stay hydrated. Some things still taste funny or off, there is still some aches, pains and discomfort, but she's stronger than the pain.
We appreciate everyone the has kept us in their prayers and everyone that has reached out to chat. There's only so much we can talk about.
