Good for morale

Jennifer has been feeling pretty good the past few days, despite the fact that she has just come through the second session of chemo-therapy. She said the med team has given her a new medication to help fight some of the nasty side effects from the first session. In simple terms, the new meds are designed to help stabilize her white blood cell count. I don’t know much about that, but Jenn assures me that she is feeling better. I guess that’s one of the benefits of Jenn having the same people looking after her for so many days and weeks now. They doctors and nurses are learning exactly how her body chemistry responds to every type of medication they give. She knows she is in for some rough days ahead, but she says she is ready for it. Of course Jenn has become the darling of the Oncology floor because she has been there for so many weeks(Since early September) and everyone knows her and everyone drops in to say hello. I think that’s pretty nice and pretty good for her morale.
