Esther's 1st Dose of Chemo

Esther completed her first dose of chemotherapy today. She was at the doctor's office for six hours. The doctor said that she did great! She is home now and feeling ok. Over the next ten days we'll begin to see what kind of side effects she will have. During this time, it's really important for her to rest. So, we're asking for all her friends and family to send her notes on this blog. We'll keep the blog updated and let everyone know when she's ready for visitors again.

The doctor told her today that she will have six rounds of chemotherapy. After she completes the third round they will do another scan to see how her body is responding. Her next dose is on February 10.

She has really enjoyed and appreciated all the notes from everyone! Thanks to everyone for your help and support!
