I had my second round of immunology infusion yesterday. It's
really quite simple. I sit in a recliner with an IV and receive two
different types of solutions that are meant to build up my
T cells and getting them fighting the cancer cells. It takes a
couple of hours. There have been no negative side effects, and
there is no hair loss from this form of chemo.
I am not alone in the center. There are two rooms of patients
receiving their own infusions. Everyone is so friendly and
quite cheerful and the mood is kept upbeat by the kindest
nurses who work to make sure everything runs smoothly, and
that we are all comfortable. They help to keep the laughter
going.
I cannot say enough nice things about the nurses I have come to
know throughout my several months of illness. They are truly
competent angels! It would have been much, much harder to get
through all the treatments and scary days I have experienced.
God bless them! I am forever grateful for their expertise and for
their compassion.
Love,
Susan and Oliver
