Ladysmith beach day

Today was a rough day.....Brenn was nauseous throughout the night and most of the morning, she couldn't keep anything down, we don't think anything actually made it to her stomach before it came up. We gave her a heavy duty anti nauseant med that goes under her tongue, this just seemed to take the edge off enough for her to get to the hospital to get hooked up to IV to receive fluids, gravol, her regular daily meds and yes the chemo. The doctors are unsure as to why she is feeling sick to her stomach as she had chemo a week ago, the leg pokes may be the cause but the reaction is quite delayed or it could be from the steroid but she's had it problem free for 6 days...this is still a mystery. So we have a plan to manage it over the next few days....alot of anti nauseant's mixed with a acid reflux med, hopefully this 24 hour regime will take care of it until the nausea subsides.

On a good note Brenns counts are amazing and the extensive blood work done to check her liver and other organ function all came back good.....yeah Brenn she never seizes to amaze me. Her body is being pumped full of poison designed to kill the cancer cells as well as her healthy cells and her body just doesn't seem to get that, it just keeps making the healthy ones and fighting off whatever it can to keep her healthy and going.....she is an inspiration :)
