Wrapped up the 9th treatment of Taxol yesterday. Nurse Gale Sherman had trouble getting blood from both lumens of my port. Nurse Jack got them to work but both had to have TPA (a cleanser) for 20 minutes before they'd give blood. Labs showed I needed magnesium so had mag going into one lumen while pre-meds were started on the other. Because I was double-dipping, my chemo wrapped up mid-afternoon. I'm due for a CT scan this month which will help determine what my chemo plans are for the future. In the meantime, I set up my dates for chemo series #10.
Granddaughter Jenna Marie has proved a true Campbell and last weekend flipped to the breach position, the same as her older brother Tyler and father Alex. So Megan is scheduled for a C-section May 15, a day after the birthday of my mother, Marie Geneva born in 1902, after whom Jenna is named. Looking forward to a belated Mother's Day present in a new grand baby.
