Three down and three to go.

Yesterday and today, February 4, I was infused with Bendamustine. This was session three of six. I am now 50% complete. Woo hoo!

While I have previously had mostly nuisance side-effects, so far, I feel fine and have high hopes that the side-effects will be absent or, at least, minor.

The entire process only takes about 90 minutes, a very welcome change from the nearly all day process from ten years ago. The very sensitive and caring Nurse K skillfully and almost painlessly inserted the needle through which the infusion is administered. She's a pro!

We celebrated with a late lunch at The Good Mexican Place. I even enjoyed a few sips of beer, remembering that alcohol has not been a very good compliment to chemo in sessions past.

My thanks to Cousin M with whom I whiled away the time in a long, pleasant FaceTime visit. Thanks, Cuz!
