This is great, Toni! Now that she's out of the hospital is she the type that you have to sit on to get her to rest and recuperate? If so, I have a feeling that the family members will be busy for a while keeping tabs on her to make sure she obeys her doctor's orders, LOL. How often will she be getting the chemo treatments?

Yes, she is. Thankfully with her still so weak from the stroke it's easier to keep her DOWN lol

I don't know, she's taking it orally so *shrugs* I don't know how it works.

The reason I asked about the chemo treatments, the people I, personally, know who have had either the intravenous or oral treatments have been so tired for from one to a few days after each session that they were too tired to do much. This may work to keep your grandma from overdoing stuff during her recovery period, lol. In any case it will be important to keep a close eye on her.

Great news Toni. Your Grandmother sounds like a strong spirited woman with a sense of humor. She has the right ingredients for a
speedy recovery. Wishing her the best!
