Outpatient Immunotherapy and Chemotherapy

Caroline (finally) "made counts" today and was allowed to start treatment again.   She received an immunotherapy and 2 chemotherapies.

It was a VERY long, rough day full of side effects, including: rash, itching, pain, swelling, and worst/scariest of all was plummeting blood pressure that required them to pause treatment twice.  After some additional steroids and fluids, she was able to complete day one of this week’s cycle.

She will return tomorrow for day 2.

Thank you for all the prayers and gestures of support.

Exhausted and off to bed…

Here's a glimpse of the rash (and this wasn't even nearly the worst of it)...
