Friday, day 3 after Chris’s 1st chemo treatment (Chemo day was counted as day 1). Today, the Dexamethasone wasn’t having the same effect on her as it did yesterday.
Chris told me the day started out ok, aside from feeling a bit queasy. She felt active in the morning, then suddenly felt really rough & dizzy & had no choice but to take it easy for the rest of the day.
Chris said that her head felt like it was being crushed in a vice, she was very fatigued, felt queasy & her mouth was constantly dry.
Magda spent the day looking after Chris, ensuring she stayed hydrated & nourished.
By the time I got home from work, Chris’s voice was really soft & quiet. I had to lean in close just to hear her. This was a dramatic change from yesterday & I’m quietly worried about the days to come.. Fingers crossed, this is the worst she will feel.
