Friday Feb 19th

This is yesterdays post :)

Just wanted you all to know that Jess finally got her chemo today. They call about 945 this morning and expected her that are 1100?? I guess that they just don't know how far we live from Medford....They got over there about 100. They started to heavily medicate her so that she wouldn't have a reaction. It does seem like she is getting worse each time she has it. I called Jon about 230 and he said that she was doing well and sleeping heavily. Jess text me about 400 and said that they were heading this way. About 430 Jon called and said that they were headed back to the cancer center because Jess had thrown up and wasn't feeling well.

Pat and I waited anxiously to see what was going to happen and see if we needed to head over there. He called Jon about 6 and Jess answered. She got on the phone with me and told me that she ended up having a bad reaction. The nurse said she was getting ready to stick her with the epi pen! She had 3 doctors standing around her for 20 mins, watching her while they gave her more medicine. She said that she was scared! She said when she opened her eyes and they were unbelievably itch and she could only see yellow! She said that she started throwing up everywhere and down herself and couldn't stop. She didn't even feel it coming. Needless to say the doctors wanted her to stay the night so that if she had a problem she was already over there. Sooo...I will let you know how she is. I imagine I will be up half the night worrying about her. Please keep her in your prayers and send her your strength.

Love to all,
Cindi

  1. Hi Cindi,
    Well, I am so sorry to hear of the awful time Jess is having now. It would be insulting for me to say I understand - but I do feel so badly and sorry for everything you guys are going through. I, along with my family, are praying quite often. I lit a candle for you at church this morning. Please turn your troubles over to God and ask your friends for help and support. This is a challenging experience for all of you and we never let you far from our thoughts. We are praying for good, healthy things ahead. Remember how you, Jess, and your family are loved. Please let me know if there's ANYTHING I (we) can do for any of you. Hang in there and keep looking ahead and let God take care of the situation.
    Prayers, love, and warm hugs,
    Kimberley, Richard, and Morgan
