Chemo today

Holly woke up feeling better today and received Chemotherapy!

She had a little more pain last night, but over all better.

She has an amazing spirit and has been preparing for her friend Tamara's garage sale this weekend.

3rd week in Bend

Holly's Hematocrit & Hemoglobin are great this week after receiving blood.

Although, Holly has been not feeling well due to trying to possibly fight a bug. She has been to the doctor a couple of times this week. She received some fluids due to dehydration.

They are going to hold off until the end of the week with Chemotherapy, to see how she feels.

Holly has been looking forward to the 5k Run next week, which will hopefully give her a second wind.

Keep it up Holly! We are all behind you.

2nd Chemo in Bend + Blood transfusion

Holly's had her chemotherapy treatment yesterday, followed by a blood transfusion. Her hematocrit & Hemoglobin continued to drop from last week, therefore she received 2 units of blood.

She was very thankful that her treatment was in Bend after a long day.

Holly also lost 4 lbs. this week.

Her spirits still remain high, just a little tired from her long day yesterday!

Keep sending prayers and positive energy her way!

Chemo yesterday in Bend

Holly gained 2 lbs yesterday and had her chemotherapy in Bend. 

Her Hematocrit and Hemoglobin dropped again, possibly another blood transfusion this week. Doctors are going to recheck later this week!

Holly is happy to be closer to home doing chemotherapy, especially since Evan started school this week!   

Chemotherapy next week will be in Bend on Tuesday! 

Holly is looking forward to the Run/Walk in Redmond on October 1st.

Thanks for the continued support, thoughts, and prayers!

Love, Holly & family

Seattle visit #7

Holly went to Seattle this week and her H & H counts are back up and she is no longer neutropenic (WBC are up again).

The doctor's decided not to change any of the Chemotherapy dosages, but want to add Avastin to the plan. We need the insurance to approve of this drug before the doctors start it. They are glad that cancer is not growing as fast.

The Seattle doctors are going to allow Holly to do her next six treatments in Bend, yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Holly is looking forward to that!

One step at time...GO HOLLY!
