Tuesday, December 18 - Mother was not able to take her chemotherapy treatment again today. It was her platelets that were the problem today. The white-blood count was good, but the platelets were not cooperating. Her next chemo was scheduled for Christmas Eve, and I would be able to take her to that appointment because school was out for Christmas break. I looked forward to going with her.
I had avoided doing too much research into the treatment thus far. I was afraid to know too much. I just needed to stay as positive as possible. I refused to let anything dampen my resolve to be strong for my Mom. I had a new found "Bring It On" attitude that gave me strength since her diagnosis. I found myself reading other survivors blog posts and thus began my own. I started purchasing breast cancer gifts for my daughters and myself for Christmas. I was determined that my Mom; too, would survive this.
