Days 7-8

Yesterday and today found mom in pretty much the same shape:
She feels good...then she feels not so good.
Today she visited her oncologist, Dr. B, and he gave her the good news that all of this is completely "normal". He seems pleased with how she is holding up and reminded her that she will feel pretty good just in time to be "hit by the truck again".
Mom mentioned how the chemo must be still working its way through her system because she is having lots of hot and cold flashes. Dr B then shares an interesting bit of info...once the pump is stopped, the chemo is done. The side effects she's noticing is how the chemo has affected her healthy cells. A delayed reaction, if you will.
Huh. Who knew?

Mom is hoping to make it in to work tomorrow, if only to see everyone and "check in on some things". I can't imagine how stir-crazy she must be now that her good moments are outweighing her not so good moments. I know she'll take it easy and not push it.
RIGHT, MOM??? YOU WILL TAKE IT EASY AND NOT PUSH IT, RIGHT???

One thing I am falling in love with right now:
B texts her Goppie (that's what my kids call mom...long story...ask me later) everyday to check on her and share about her day.
My heart just SOARS.
