NEULASTA SHOT

Mom had her usual Neulasta shot this morning to help boost her white blood cell count. This time, though, she really felt the pain and was really sick afterward. After working through lots of pain, she fell asleep and napped all afternoon. We're now realizing (after all of these months) that the chemo definitely makes her sick, but the neulasta shot seems to do the real trick in causing the wrenching pain. She'll be much better after a day or two, I'm sure. Just in time to fly to Houston.
