10-16-2008 Pam was scheduled for her 4th chemo treatment today but it was canceled because her hemoglobin count was very low. She is scheduled for a transfusion tomorrow morning to help counter this anemia. We learned the chemicals used in this chemo plan attack good cells as well as the cancer cells and are the most likely cause of Pam's lack of energy and need for excessive rest.
Pam remains in good spirits and is anticipating a much more comfortable weekend after her blood is stabilized. Thank you for your prayers and expressions of love which keep us going.
