Not much new going on here.
Waiting for Friday when Lex will get chemo in her spine as well as IV vincristine and the dreaded awful daunorubicin.
Praying for a more proactive and aggressive approach to the nausea and vomiting and hoping it will make a difference this time around.
Saturday we will turn our room into a beauty salon. Christina is cutting Lexie's hair off for her wig and, much to my excitement... She is highlighting and cutting my hair. Can't wait to feel "human" again.
Yesterday, we were able to get out of the room and wander the halls. Lexie's not happy with the amount of photo's I'm trying to take.
So blessed by all your prayers, words of encouragement and tangible help you so graciously have extended to us.
We had a little excitement tonight... Lexie had some funky sensitivity to her phenergan, a medication used to curb the nausea.
She kept getting waves of this sensation that she was going to pass out, she said the room was spinning and the walls were moving. She was seeing "amoeba's on the wall" and she was scared. She was telling us it was hard to breathe and then she would gasp and her eyes got really big... it was scary.
But then she said, "I'm sorry I keep making a 'thats so raven' face" and in the midst of the fear... Lexie, myself, her nurse and the doctor all started cracking up laughing.
Tonight I'm grateful for the laughter.
Lexie is still battling with persistent nausea. They switched two of her medications tonight and I'm praying this gives her some relief.
Please pray specifically for relief from the discomfort and the nagging sensation that she has to throw up. She is also having significant anxiety and anticipatory nausea every time they flush her port. She tastes a horrible taste and feels a strange sensation.
Please pray for Lexie's ability to cope with all these changes and for a supernatural peace to carry her through the entire treatment course.
God brought some amazing new friends into our lives today and I'm praising Him for the undeniable orchestration to meet each and every one of our needs.
It's late and I'm tired now... so I will share more tomorrow. PUSH and PULL... Pray Until Something Happens and Pray Until Lymphoma Loses.
