First Chemotherapy Session
My Mama was admitted last Wednesday around 2pm and was discharged Thursday 6pm. The doctor requested to do some tests first, including testing her heart before starting the chemotherapy. The chemotherapy went ok but we were all worried about the side effects, mainly vomiting. But surprisingly she hasn’t vomited since the day she was discharged from the hospital although she complains that parts of her body hurt and has lost her appetite. We try to give her solid foods but she prefers to just intake soup and milk only.
Hopefully she would feel better every day that passes and the pains in her body would fade away. Thanks everyone for praying!!!

i hope she gets better.. the aftermath of the treatment is the hard part.. your mom will experience surely the side effects.. she will tire easily, feel nauseated, etc. also her immune system will be weakened, so therefore she should avoid persons with acute infections. the effects will wear off gradually so hope things will be ok.
