Day Two


Day Two after chemo. I dutifully got the neulasta shot, and I should start feeling the bone pain tomorrow. I was in the pink wig today, indeed, I was all pink today. I saw Dr. V. in passing and he was most impressed by the outfit and told me I should take a picture so I enlisted the Howard to take the picture above.

I went grocery shopping with Howard after the shot and then came home and fell into bed. I was pretty tired. I got up for dinner, but it was out of the question to go to my support group, much as I wanted to.

Glen sent me a link to an article about a promising cancer drug that targets cancer cells and not healthy cells. Chemo, as we know it, may become a thing of the past, that is, if someone will fund the research. It’s an existing drug with no patent, so it can’t generate huge profits for Big Pharma, hence they won’t touch it.
