I went to my dad's first cancer treatment today.
It wasn't as bad as I thought...it wasn't really anything like I thought.
You step into a room full of people with chairs and IVs in their veins, right? And you would think it would be kind of freaky, but it actually calms you down a little, cause you look around the room and realize, "hey! other people are going through this too."
My dad did wonderfully. No side effects. He's basically a champ.
I'm not gonna lie...I was scared out of my mind. Although a small percentage, they told us that 7/1000 people die with the very first injection. So of course, for the first hour you're on the edge of your seat wondering what could happen.
But things are calmer now for me. I know how this treatment stuff works now, and now, I just have to hope it does its magic on my dad's cancer. I believe it is quite possible.
Hey J Unit!!!
