The Stillroom

The chemo went well. It was the passing out when I got home that was not so good. I guess I got up too fast and blacked out cold, just missing hitting my head on the concrete hearth. I was very lucky. Mike was mortified as I lay there, eyes open and gasping for air. I finally sat up, said I was ok as he was getting ready to call 911. I sat on the floor and did blood pressure check and oxygen levels, both of which were fine. I eventually crawled back to my chair and took it easy the rest of the day. Wha t made matter ms worse, I was attached to my chemo pump. Note to self, don’t get up so fast as dizzy spells will occur. It was scary.!
