Home, Week 40, New Chemo Round 2

Mom had her second round of the new chemo drug on Tuesday. Her CA-125 went down to 423, so this drug is working. Her birthday is on Saturday, and she's conscious for this one (yay!), so this one counts (boo).

Her hair is coming out, and it's rather thin now, but we haven't shaved her head yet. When she gets tired of it coming out when it's long, she'll let me know.

Happy Belated Birthday! Hope this new drug is the best gift ever , even though it will knock you out for awhile. Hang in there! We'll love you bald just the same!

Get out that "frizzy" hat you wore before!

Praying for you, Love Sandy
