Tomorrow will be the end of week 1, round 2. All in all, she has tolerated this round MUCH better than the first round. She has had a little nausea off and on throughout the week, but it hasn't been constant like it was before.
Her main issue this round has been fatigue. All of you that know mom know she likes to keep busy all the time. So her routine has been to rest for a while, then get up and do stuff for a while (throughout the day).
She is also restless a lot. I told her maybe some more Ativan (anti-anxiety medication) will help her with the restlessness. She LOVES gardening (as you all know), so she will do some watering around the yard then go rest. I offered to do the watering, but she said she likes to "stay busy".
I know it's good for her to keep a routine even with everything that is going on now. So as long as she's happy, I'll stay outta mom's way. She sure is a little firecracker, and stubborn I might add (probably where I got it from). I think the stubborn factor will keep her fighting the fight. She's so strong.
She has also been keeping busy with sewing the baby blankets for the babies at my work. Mom showed me how to work a sewing machine (I think I need more practice though). I love that she can at least do a few things to keep her mind off the serious stuff.
I am so blessed that I have a job where I am part time right now. I've had a week off and have spent the majority of time with her.
Will keep you all posted. Love you all!
