First of all – 2 weeks to the day of her amputation Maggie went up the stair to the bedroom. 3 weeks of sleeping in the dining room appear to be over. Hurrah!!!
Met with the oncologist Wed for her 1st treatment. The Dr recommended Carboplatin every 3 weeks for 4 treatments. We had a scare because the blood work came back with elevated liver numbers. He did an ultrasound and looked at most of her organs and did not see any issues. Recheck her liver in 1 month. Since there is no visible spreading of the cancer – he expects her to have about 1 year. We’re doing everything we can to give her that at least.
She had no side effects from the chemo. Eating normally, wants to go for a walk, goes up and down the stairs with no problem. Life is getting closer to back to normal.
