1 minus C-Day

Tomorrow starts the chemo treatments along with the heart port getting put in. Welcome to Adenocarcinoma of Unknown Origin, aka Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma. In plain english that means lung cancer, we don't know where it came from and it's in someone who doesn't smoke or otherwise abuse themselves. She eats healthy. Excercises. In general, someone who is not a typical victim.

She has good days and she has bad days and she has so-so days. She's been recovering from the surgery from last week and healing. Breathing is always labored. The rest has been fitful at times. It's better when she's in the hospital like now getting oxygen. She's constantly attended to by dad. Me & C spent Friday night to watch over her so dad could get some rest. He never left her side. Then we cleaned their place from top to bottom Saturday & Sunday. Put a rotisserie chicken in the fridge for dad. I'm returning tonight to clean up the deck for her return.

The problems that cancer can cause have yet to truly arrive. The problems with chemo will begin tomorrow. My aunt is coming to help full time by Wednesday. Many more have volunteered to take their turns. They will be called upon sooner or later for this battle.
