How Can I Help -- Treatment Update

This is day 3 after the first chemo treatment, and I have to say my partner is doing really well. She got all her hair cut yesterday, and that was a little bit disconcerting at first...but I think it was the best decision she could have made. And honestly, she looks great.

That first day, she was tired, but I think that was from sitting in the hospital 4 hours earlier. So far, she doesn't seem to have had any negative side-effects. I'm not naive enough to think that's going to always be the case, but for now, I'm grateful for the good days!
Again, thank you all for your thoughts and your help!
