We went and had our appointment with Dr. Chen. Well, let me back up. Harriet went to Kaiser at about 9 AM yesterday to get her shot. She waited for over an hour and there was a problem. We didn't find out till later on when we met with Dr. Chen, but what he did was put in the order for her to take the shots at home (self inflicted) you know what I mean. Up until this time all the shots that she received were from the nurses clinic. So that was the problem and they didn't give it to her.
Dr. Chen made the correction in the computer for Monday. Harriet asked him if he'd up the dosage of the chemotherapy? He said no, the medication is the same. What he said was the medication reaches a saturation point within your body and that's why they only give eight chemo's for this particular problem of lymphoma. So that means a week from this Monday she will get another chemo, Lord willing her white blood cell count is up high enough and then she's going to end up going through all this one more time. That's about it.
We have a funeral at our church this morning for Don Goldy. Nice guy, he was very faithful in coming to church. I met with his wife Hazel and their daughter Jeannie yesterday afternoon in preparation for the service. Busy weekend.
Maranatha,
Frank and Harriet
