Last night was a tough night for Jayne! She had an allergic reaction to her chemo and she felt like her lips, mouth and sinuses were on fire! After having the doctor come in at 3 A.M. and getting her the right meds she was able to sleep for a short time before waking up again in pain. Last nights chemo was a single dose so she will not have that chemo again! She was having a hard time smelling alcohol...the one to clean the ports with ;) but that is getting better as the day goes on.
The chemo she received today lasted 2 1/2 hours and she seems to be doing pretty good! She was up today and took a few laps around the unit and was cruzin'! We are so proud of her...she is doing great! Mom and I took a class this morning for a few hours on what to expect in the hospital and how to care for Jayne when she gets home!
Jayne had her first friends come to visit and had a great visit from Kathi and Karina! Thanks for coming to visit, you put a smile on her face! Thank you for all the prayers, emails and phone calls from so many of you!
After her second lap around the unit her nurse nominated her to have a complimentary massage from a licensed massage therapist that specializes in Oncology patients! Jayne is now very relaxed and is looking forward to a good night sleep...well a good night with being woke up at least every four hours by the nurse.
Mom and I will be heading back to Jayne's house soon and will be back in the morning!
