End of the First week after Chemo

Many things had to be done this week.  Each day I had to be somewhere in the morning.  I often came home exhausted and needed a nap.
Monday was blood test and talked to the physical therapist about the surgeon's visit.

Tuesday I had an appointment with a Lymphedema  specialist.  she measured me for a  compression sleeve to help with the swelling I get while on chemo and exercising.  She did not feel that my nymphs were causing my problems so she did not do any therapy on me.

Thursday I did blood test to see how my counts were.  They were still down.  I went to a specialist to get a compression sleeve and glove.  The lady was wonderful and was able to get me all that I needed.   My wonderful friend Sandy took me to these appointments then we went to lunch.  Always a fun day with her.

Friday I went to physical therapy.  I thought that they would be easy on me...not!  Whining did not even help.  He was given authority to do all exercises except stretching my arm out 90 degrees away from my body.
I did fine but had to go home for a nap before Alden's party.

My sister, Tammy was here for a few days.  She had appointments in Salt Lake. She helped me cut jean material for Alden's quilt.  We had a good time.  On Saturday we finished all the pieces that needed cut.  Now I will be sewing before she comes back to help me finish it!
