Well. this is probably the last feel-good day for a few. Tomorrow starts round 2 of chemo that will
include two days of infusions.
Tomorrow’s main ingredient is Rituximab aka Rituxan the chimeric
(made in mice) monoclonal antibody
that’s supposed to kill off lymphoma cells especially when the B cells are on
the dodgy end of the scale and mine are, they’re “large”. The next day is when the more toxic chemical
blast occurs and, based on the last round, I’ll be back to the state of “chemo
brain” as well as chemo body. All in
all, if it’s like the last time and if it works, it’s way worth it.

My body let out a big sigh after reading this. The Spirit groans for us.
Praying as you go to chemo battle this week!
I wonder if Marmalade Lady will be there! Will be praying all goes as well as possible.
praying for you - just picture each B-cell having a big landing pad inviting the Rituxan to "land here!"
