Yesterday was chemo day and Olivia decided to come in her doctor gear. The night before, she was playing doctor with me and I was acting scared of the injections. She told me to be brave just like her! She could be a great doctor one day!
All her blood workfrom yesterday were normal except for a 5x increase in her liver function number (ALT count). Doctor is suspecting it might be due to her increased dosage of one of her chemo (methotrexate). She started to increase dosage probably 2-3 months ago and it was based on her weight. We will have to come back in 2 weeks for more blood work to monitor her liver function. For now, we were advised to keep the dosage the same at home.
Hoping and praying everything will be ok.
hey doctor, lighting a candle for you and thanking Him for His love. may He make you feel courageous every day. this is for you:
ReplyDeletethere is a little girl
olivia is her name
whose life is filled with pain
but who can laugh still.
i want to hold her in my arms
to comfort her and make her laugh
to say that pains do end
but she is far away.
but in her world there is a door
that opens out to yet another world
a world of possibilities
that will soon welcome her.
so keep your courage olivia
warriors like you will soon succeed
and one day you will go through that door
free from the grip of c
Thank you so much Sally.
