Ida was not well today, she had fever and was generally unhappy.
She was treated with antibiotics, paracetamol and the doctors took some blood tests to check for infections. She was much better this evening - the fever went down and she got to eat something. She's now sleeping.
Yesterday, Sunday, Ida got the first doses of chemotherapeutic drugs (that's not entirely true, she got some on Friday directly to her spine, yesterday she got the first intravenous). It could be that she reacted on one of these. At this stage of her treatment regimen she gets Vincristin once a week and Doxorubicin every forth week. Both administrated intravenous.
I promise to get into more details regarding Ida's condition and the treatment she is getting as soon as I'll have some time. I find comfort in learning and understanding exactly what's going on and I intend to share this information in this blog.
To make it short - Ida is in the beginning of a treatment regimen which lasts about two and a half years. Unfortunately, days like today, when she is sick without an apparent reason are going to be common place. We need to hold on and stay positive.
