Chemo Day Friday


Tomorrow (Friday) is Abbey's chemo day. She was supposed to have it last Friday, but because of her fever and sickness last week it was pushed back to tomorrow. We have to be at clinic at 10:30 for her to get checked out and accessed. She then will get vinicristine in her port. Her sedation time is for 1:30 so after we are done with everything at clinic we will head over to the sedation unit. It will be a long morning since she can't eat at all until she wakes up from her procedure which won't be until about 2:30. We talked today about exactly what she wants to eat when she wakes up. I always have her food ready for her, right by her bed as soon as she opens her big brown eyes :). Tomorrow evening she starts her steroid pulse for five days, twice a day. Please pray tomorrow for everything to go smoothly. High numbers and a peace for us all, especially our brave little Abbey. Thanks.

You are such a great mom! I am sure that the little things like having her food ready for her make a big difference to her!! Thinking of you tomorrow as well!

I hope that all went well for Abbey on Friday and that the nasty steroids aren't causing too many problems with her. Keeping her and all the family in prayers. God Bless!~
