Day 760 (Y2D30) ChemoR1

Monday was just marvelous. V played with us all day. She played fun jumping games with us and let us pick out our own outfits. Auntie Mina and Auntie Sonia came to play with us for a short while.

After receiving the transfusions yesterday, Mom had so much more energy for the day. Even though Mom awoke with swollen gums, a chemo side effect, this magical mouthwash of lidocaine made her woes quickly disappear. Mema, Auntie Mina and Auntie Sonia kept Mommy company. Mommy went on two long walks, went outside in the Bing courtyards to marvel at the blooms and got a lovely massage. Tomorrow will be her bone marrow biopsy that by end of week will confirm if one induction round is sufficient.

Thank you to everyone for all of the food drops. We feel so loved
and our indebted to your generosity. Thank you Svaya for the blood drive and thank you to those who have donated on their own. Mom is sorry that this has caused a few donors to faint!
