Rough Day

Today we had a hard day. Steve has been having muscle cramps from the neulasta shot they gave him on Friday. His body is working to produce more white blood cells to fight the bad effects of the chemo drugs. This causes his bones to ache. 

The worst part though is that Steve's nausea got the best of him. This morning he was feeling extremely nauseous. He could not eat anything, but he was able to force himself to drink and take his medicines. Then, about 1pm, he lost his fight with the nausea. The nurses told us that once he starts vomiting, it is hard to stop. That was obvious today. He slept a good bit then got up for awhile. He was able to eat some dinner, but he was not able to keep it or his medicine down. 

We are just working to keep him hydrated and see what tomorrow brings. Please continue to pray for Steve to be able to get through this second round of chemotherapy repercussions. Thanks again for all your support!
