I just wanted to give you a quick update on Teresa. I just talked to her on the phone and I saw her earlier today. She had a little trouble sleeping last night as she felt a little jittery from all of the medicine. She did sleep most of the day today and is feeling pretty good. She has not felt nauseous at all and has her appetite. She also said that Rob said her color looked good.
In other news, the insurance approved the Avastin which is the strong chemo. She can start that next week. She does not know yet which day she will get it next week.
She meets with Dr. Gupta tomorrow at 3. Be in prayer for them at this time. She also has blood work drawn tomorrow to check her calcium levels. Please pray that these are in the normal range.
As you may or may not know, her immune system will be affected by the chemo so it is crucial that she not be exposed to colds, flu, etc. Please keep this in mind if you are planning to visit her. Thanks!
