Hi everyone.
Today was the second to last chemo treatment for Shawn. I wish I could say it went smoothly, but it was the worst one yet. We found out that "anticipatory nausea" is a very real thing and he felt sick all morning before we got down to Hopkins for treatment. The nausea didn't go away and once treatment started quickly got worse. For the first time since he started treatments, he actually got sick during chemo. Thankfully the doctor quickly ordered a combo-coctail of meds to take care of it and he was feeling better by the time he was done.
It is SO good to think that now he has ONE more chemo, and two Lumbar Punctures left and then he will be done!
This Friday is his Lp, then we go back on 2/17 & 19 for the final two!!!
This has been such a long and Blessed journey for our family. We have grown spiritually and been amazed by many people who have stepped up to support us along the way! Some surprised us more than others!! It definitely makes you appreciate life in a way that is indescribable. I know that I will NEVER take what time I have with my family for granted ever again! Each and every day is precious!
Have a wonderful evening.
Jess
