2nd. week

The second week wasn't as bad..
As every Friday mom went to the hospital for another chemo cycle, she was scare, she had
low blood pressure and tachycardia so the doctors checked for eventual heart problems, fortunately there weren't any.
After an accurate blood examination, the results were disappointing, her immune defenses was weak, so,
because of the scarce antibodies and the high chance to contract infections, the chemo cycle was canceled.
She was kind of happy, at least she wasn't going through that again, but inside she knew this wasn't a good sign.
The doctors gave her a blood transfusion, to help her make more antibodies, then, since her kidneys were collapsing, she also had a liquid transfusion.
She is not allowed to go in crowd places so she stay pretty much home every day.
My dad started taking some kind of medicine too, our house started looking like a medic office or something like that.
The best news of the week was that the CA-125 marker, which identify the presence of cancer by looking at proteins in the blood, classified my mom into the normal range, basically the cure was working.
