On Tuesday at 8:15 a.m. S embarked on the next cancer treatment plan. If all goes accordingly, she will be in treatment for 40 weeks after which she will receive injections for the rest of her life.
S will spend the next five days in the ICU as her heart and lungs are monitored while she receives 14 infusions of high dose Interleukin-2. After ten days of rest at home, she goes back the ICU for round two. Then, six weeks later – during which time she will have two tumors removed from soft tissue and radiation on the cancer in her bone – she starts this process all over again for rounds three and four. If she’s lucky, she will only feel like she has the flu the entire time. If she’s unlucky…nah, there’s no need to throw that out into the universe.
