Chemo Chronicles V5:

Minions, Mama’s Chair, and the Great Heater Debate

Today  was  a great day! After the great PET scan news, I skipped down to the Chemo Room. Even though it was long chemo day.  It was the first Chemo of the last of the protocol. Five more sessions in the plan!

Entering the chemo room, my main concern was making sure that my chair was NOT under the heat.  It was hot as hell in there to me.  And I stayed hot.  In fact, I eventually took off my shoes and socks.  Three or four of the chairs under the heater had people with sweaters, heated blankets, and caps.  I am sure they were almost cooked before they left. 

All the nurses were dressed for Halloween.  They were all Minions.  It was so cute.  But of course, since I can’t remember anything, including faces, I couldn’t tell them apart.

There was lots of action in the chemo room today.  Off and on it was a full room, then emptied out to just me, tjrm a full room again. 

Once again somebody took Mama’s chair.   It was a young man.   She sat right next to him and spread out her stuff, and then fell fast asleep –maybe with her mouth open.  I bet he won’t do that again. Why can’t these people learn – the minions should just put a taken sign on that chair.

All in all, a long 7 hour day, but a good one.
Minions, heaters, naps, and all — just another episode in the ongoing adventure of Chemo Chronicles.
