No More Bad Hair Days...

Well, she did it. Vicki had her hair all shaved off yesterday evening. I haven't seen it but she's totally unphased about the whole thing.

Today was not such a bad day. Apparently, the nurses have kind of a routine going so that when Vicki wakes up, they give her the additional chemo drugs, followed by anti-nausea drugs, followed by antibiotics and pain medication for the diverticulitis. Jack said he arrived at the hospital at about 11 am today and after Vicki had lunch, she slept until about 5 pm at which point Jack left to go home...just your typical married couple.

We're looking forward to Monday when the chemo drugs stop and Vicki can concentrate all her efforts on building herself back up so she can go home.

I talked to Jack this morning, and Vicki was having a difficult start to her day, typical of what she's been going through. He went in early so he could talk to her doctor, so maybe we'll have a good update from him. Keep your fingers crossed.
