Transfusion Day

The Beam Team

When I think about our experiences with childhood cancer, there are such a range of memories, emotions, and feelings. Sometimes, it seems like a lifetime ago when we sat in a room getting a blood transfusion, or waiting for a dose of medicine, or listening to new test results. Sometimes, it can feel a little like we are in a very strange time warp.

Even though there is familiarity, it is not the same. Lilyś journey, although similar, is different than Tuckerś.


Lily is older. Lily can tell us how she feels. Lily is an important, active, participant in her treatment. That knowledge brings new and different challenges.


Lily is dealing with nausea more frequently, which is expected with the drugs that are part of this part of the treatment. She is also tired and not really wanting to do much right now. Today we are in clinic for a blood transfusion. Hopefully, that will help with her being so tired. We will then come back to clinic on Thursday for her next chemo dose.


Please pray that the chemo is doing exactly what it is designed to do. Pray that the side effects are minimal and that her nausea continues to be managed.


Thank you for your love, support, and prayers.
