Day 7: Thick sweet blood = more shots

Sunday, September 16, 2007 - One of the chemo meds can tend to thicken Mady's blood, so she will be getting a daily blood thinner medicine, which can only be given as a... shot. Not like the dreaded Asparaginase though. This shot is in the arm and much smaller--less painful than even a common insulin injection that diabetics get each day.

Oh, did we mention that one of the other chemo meds is causing her to have high blood sugar levels? She'll also be getting a common insulin injection each day.

The girl that doesn't much like shots is not pleased.
