Wait, and then wait some more...

Monday, the Berlin mom was told her leucocytes weren't yet up enough for her to begin her last round of chemo. She had to wait till today. Today they still weren't up enough, so she now has to wait till next Monday, and if they aren't up enough then, they will have to forget the last round, because more than five weeks from start to start is not allowed. Her doctor in the hospital today told her maybe she simply won't need the last round, since the chemo obviously has such a long effect on her.
So we tried to encourage her to hope they'll tell her Monday that she's finished without having to start again, but she's quite down in the dumps about the wait, rather fears they will start on Monday after all, and her whole planning for the month will be down the drain, because she wanted to go to cat-sit for her other son and his wife while they're on vacation beginning on the 28th. If she has to have the final round, she will just then be getting out.
So lets hope the doctors just give her a dispensation and let her concentrate on getting her system back up to full steam once and for all. The chemo has obviously already been successful, though she, as she says, doesn't understand any of that.
All she knows is, she feels fine and wants to have control of her own life again - fully.
