1st Round- Day #1 Chemo


It is 5:30 pm on June 25, 2010....

Wezi, my nurse, is working on getting all of the fun chemo drugs going through my body so I can start working on getting rid of all of the evil cancer in my body! Today has been a long day, part of me feels like I just woke, another part of me feels like I have been awake way too long. I am all hooked up and starting my journey.... Mike is making notes of how our day has been spent today.
