Boogy started Maintenance phase 4 on Friday! She didn't have her normal lumbar puncture that happens on day 1 of each phase, instead she will have it in 4 weeks (day 29) she did however start the normal steroid pulse that happens at the start of each Maintenance phase. Steroids suck and I hate them so much but it is a big reminder of how far she's come. Now instead of feeling this way most days, its just one week every three months, which I'm thankful for. I just wish she didn't have to feel it at all. Luckily she understands and knows things should be back to normal in a week or so. Her numbers are decent for what they want them at so keeping her at 50% chemo may be the trick. So for this week its pills, pills, more pills, insulin, injections, feeling crummy and lots of naps.
