July 26, 2018 - First chemo session

Update posted by Ma Antonia Fatima Jereza

I was a bit anxious about my first chemo cycle, the first of four cycles I have to undergo before radiation therapy. It was a long day at the hospital but it went pretty well. The first three days after the treatment, I began to feel the side effects of the medication. Body aches and pains plus a bit of diarrhea on the side. I am still thankful that the effects were minimal and after a week I could already go out to do some errands. Next cycle will be on Aug. 16 and two more on Sept. after which I will be resting for a month before my radiation therapy begins. It is still a long way but with Gods grace I am on my way to healing.
