Round 2 Chemo

Angie is currently in the process of completing round 2 of chemo. It was a slight delay due to weather-related closure to hear from the doctor.

Round 1 of Chemo ✅

Angie finished her first round of the chemo pill with very little side effects, however, this week she had 3 straight days of bouts with diarrhea (a side effects of the chemo pills), even though she stopped her last pill on Sunday the 2nd.  The rest of the week has brought relief but her system is still not back to normal and she has had some fatigue.   Please pray that this will be a better week with fewer side effects.  She have blood work done tomorrow and the tentative date to resume chemo pill is the 17th.
