KeithMukai on Nostr: KumaDawg's radiation therapy is now at: 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩⬜️⬜️ ...
KumaDawg (nprofile…jhyu)'s radiation therapy is now at:
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩⬜️⬜️ 80%
~1000 miles driven thus far, ~32hrs of Chicago traffic.
Her leg veins weren't having it this week. So instead they put in a central line IV catheter.
So now I have to flush the catheters 3x a day to make sure no clots develop. It's FREAKY: I have to inject saline STRAIGHT INTO HER JUGULAR!!!! 👀🤢😫
It's a pretty safe procedure; apparently it would take 1ml+ of air to cause an embolism and I'm fussing to get rid of bubbles that are like 1/1000th that size.
But it's still stressful and gross and kind of disturbing to think about. At least Kuma doesn't seem to care and she's happy to get a treat after!
The hospital staff has been so sweet and continues to be wonderful.
After Tuesday she's done, catheters come out, most of the meds ramp down.
