Back in the Chemo-Chair Again
Back in the chemo-chair again.
Back with the poison flowing in.
Well, the pillows here are nice,
'Cause they don't transmit no lice.
Back in the chemo-chair again.
Sorry about the line about lice, but it was the best I could do (chemo-brain?), and each patient does get a fresh pillow.
This was my 28th pemetrexed infusion at the University of Colorado Hospital since the fall of 2011. I had six more in combination with cisplatin in Texas before moving to Colorado. This was the first in my new chemo schedule--three three-week infusions followed by a nine-week break to allow my body to recover. I'm looking forward to see how this works out. Will it improve my sense of well-being? Will it be as effective in holding my tumors at bay? Time will tell.

I like the remake of back in the saddle, especially the fresh pillows! Erica
