My aunt moved into my house recently…..it was my idea that she did that….. she did chemotherapy eventually…..after the recommendation of doctor…..

She was injected with toxins, two huge syringes of that!!!! Because she has the final phase of lung cancer……which means the cancer cells have spread to other parts of the body, in her case, to the neck and oesophagus area….

Well……..we were told that she might not make it till this year…….

( )

Errr……I wanted to stop blogging, wanted to leave it blank…..(which made me stared at the computer screen for about half an hour and………but I decided to continue!!!! Argh!!! What’s wrong with you, lynette!!!!!)

Major side effects of chemotherapy:

Dizziness, nausea, hair loss, pain in almost every parts of body, high fever (high body temperature), sometimes trembling, the inflammation of the urethra and anus, cough, menopause (for a short period), sometimes itchiness……….(actually these are all symptoms of low immunity)

Have you figure out why I did that….

At first I was kinda felt uneasy with her presence…..(I know I was contradicting…..but for god’s sake!!!! I want to do something, I think it’s my obligation to do that too!!!!)……but now, after the whole night with her, it’s getting quite okay……

We even bought her a nice mattress to sleep in my room, air conditioned…… this is the best our family can do…….

(hey, she just passed by the screen…..asked me what am I doing….”nothing, its my homework….hey, I play you some nice Chinese songs to chill yourself up”……..she liked them!!!)

The treatment she did this afternoon actually wasn’t a big help at all……there’s only3/10 probability that she will heal….but lung cancer is one of the difficult cases to crack…..and the source of the cancerous cells will not be completely eradicated…..

I’ve seen her medical report, she done surgery of eliminating cancerous cells from her neck earlier, her type of lung cancer is categorized as non-small cell, and to be exact, squamous cell….and she’ll have to do five more chemotherapies………

(she even showed “two thumbs up!!!” listening songs…..haha…..sometimes she got sense of humour…..hope she’ll be in good shape……I’ll keep her optimistic at most time…..finger crossed tightly for her…….)
