Neulasta Shot

This morning Kevin and Yenis came over for a few minutes before I needed to leave to the doctor. We gave Kevin his birthday present since we couldn’t make it to his party last weekend.

I started feeling a little achy and nauseous today. It’s not real bad, but I feel like it will be getting worse the next few days.

I had a 1pm doctor’s appointment to get my Neulasta shot. Alena, from the mom’s group, offered to take care of the boys during my appointment, so I dropped them off at her house around 12:15. She has two boys and is a certified home child care provider.

I got to the doctor at 1pm, but they didn’t call me in until 2pm. They were very backed up. It was raining today, so maybe others before me were delayed because of the rain? I got the shot. They said I will most likely have some bone pain from it, just not sure when. Some people get the worst of it around 7 days after their chemo when their white blood cell count is the lowest. We’ll see what happens.

After getting the shot I picked Evan and Noah up from Alena’s. They were coloring with markers when I got there. It seemed like they had a good time.

At home, I put the boys down for naps and we all slept.

When Morry got home we ordered some food from Blue Bamboo and he went to pick it up.

We just put Evan and Noah to bed. Evan is sitting on the stairs now making up excuses about why he’s not going to sleep.
