Molly's Guardians


This is Catherine Mater typing for Molly, and I think Molly's Guardians are doing a terrific job, indeed!! So - I came on Monday, expecting to be put through the grill - as we all know that each time Molly goes through a session it just seems to get more difficult for her. The big surprise (at least for me) is that Molly is doing really (almost unexpectedly) well. She's been able to sleep (she says the best sleep she's ever had going through these sessions); has eaten regularly (with little or no side effects); has had only one minor episode of chills (which were controlled within a half an hour); and has managed to keep her temp within very reasonable range (no higher than 99.3). No bouts of diarrhea (amazingly!!!) The staff here at the hospital is truly amazing .... not a mean one in the bunch; great personalities! The one thing we are really watching right now is her blood pressure - results which will determine whether she gets her fifth dose this evening. So - 4 for 4 so far and doing great (as only Molly can do!).
