Valerie finished her her week of infusions on Saturday. She only received Cytarabine it was the infusion that took the shortest amount of time but it seems to have the biggest impact on Valerie's body.
Valerie spent most of the weekend in bed resting and recovering. She occasionally got out to use the restroom but that's about it. Its seems crazy that just last week she was doing awesome, going places, eating normally, going to church and then after a week of getting beat up by the chemo she's down. Hopefully she will recover from this cycle as fast as the last one. With the last one, Dr. Reeder seemed very pleased with her recovery.
On Thursday she goes in for her last Rituxan treatment and then we wait for next Thursday when she goes in to get her PET scan. Please pray her that the treatment that she has been enduring is doing its job and killing cancer cells so that she can move on to the stem cell transplant.
Thank you for the support. This is the last week of this online campaign so please keep spreading word for us. We are so close to our goals. The last day that anyone can use this site is Friday. I will move all the content to a blog where I will continue to post updates, status reports, and a donation widget. I will send the link out by Friday. Thank you all.
