at the hospital

Mom finished up all three doses of her chemo and has amazed everyone by how well she has tolerated it. In fact, her only side effect has been weakness. This morning her weakness was enough that she decided she needed to be checked out up at the transplant unit. They found that her blood pressure was a little low and her pulse was a little high. It seems she is a bit dehydrated. A bag of IV fluids will make her feel much better. She will go home as soon as she's done with the IV. They did tell her that next week would be a little rough on her and she will probably be admitted then. Of course, I think she won't feel nearly as bad as they expect... She has some extra help from above.
