Day 136 - Back on the regular plan

Today was Anna's first day of getting chemo at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC). Anna received a new drug called Doxorubicin http://m.cancer.org/treatment/treatmentsandsideeffects/guidetocancerdrugs/doxorubicin

It was not pretty look at considering it was gonna in her body. She made it through like a champ! 

Also on todays menu was good ole' Vincristine! King of constipation. http://m.cancer.org/treatment/treatmentsandsideeffects/guidetocancerdrugs/vincristine

Very different experience at MSKCC. All of this was done while Anna was hanging in the play room. It was refreshing vs having to sit and lay in a bed all day. 

Anna continued to just go through the motions and dealt with it all with such grace. It was hilarious when she finished going to the bathroom and said "My Pee is orange.... cool! " Ahhh the innocence of being a child. Gotta love it. 

Thankfully the day went off without a hitch!
