Alison's Radiation

Ali's been home since Friday. I think it's safe to say we prefer chemo over radiation, hands down. She's continuously been nauseas, even vomitting, cold sweats, fatigued, and her throat is being affected tremendously too. She's had several IV's of Pepcid, but she's still having issues with eating and swallowing. She's lost 11 lbs in two weeks.
She's battling though, and needs to complete Friday's, then next week until Wednesday.
The new doctor, whom I haven't been impressed by, is setting up an appointment for her to visit the IU medical center to see if she qualifies for a clinical study. We'll see how that goes.
Work has been engaging. A lot to learn in a short amount of time. And the house isn't unpacked yet, but it's liveable.
We're missing Carolina a bit, but doing our best at nesting here. Thought I'd leave an update for those worried about her not posting, doing her 365 photos, etc. She's just not up to it.
