Last Chemo

Chemo #4 Day 1

Ma had what I hope is her very last chemo ever. We arrived at 9am and were at the infusion center till 3:30pm. They serve the patients lunch. However, they always serve the same menu -- soup, three dry-looking meatballs (no sauce), rice, sliced steamed carrots, a roll and juice. Ma eats the soup; the rest she won't touch. Pa and I went across the street to the Filipino restaurant and got her bistig and monggo soup. I like having tiny fish eyes staring at me while I'm eating, so I ordered dilis for myself. Those things sure are salty.

Ma is doing a good job today of drinking lots of water. She's on her 5th bottle (500 ml each). It helps that it's warm today.
