Weekly Musings : Week 24 Stage 3 Starts


Weekly Musings : Week 24 Stage 3 Starts

This weeks starts his stage 3 of Chemo which is repeat of the first stage. This involves strong steroids and its accompanying side effects of mood swings, hair losses, weight gains etc. This time we are better prepared and aware. The chemo treatments are like learnings albeit a hard way where one has to go through it and experience and then understand and learn. In this journey one reaches to people who have had similar experiences, for us it is Mihir who is now 20 years old studying to be a doctor in Russia but had the exact same situation and other is Sudha whom we met in the chemo sessions who has a 2 year child and his chemo got over a few months back. An emotional support system gets created as we get ready to face stage 3 of treatment which will last for 4 weeks.
