Sigh… It is another one of those weeks where I am not able to proceed with my chemotherapy.
I went to TTSH on 23 February, Saturday for my blood test and the platelet count result was 82 which mean that I am not able to proceed to my next round of chemotherapy on 25th February, Monday. Somewhat upset as this time around, the Oncologist had planned for the cycle to proceeds at 4 weeks interval due to my past platelet count readings. It also means that when I am able to have my chemotherapy on 5th March, it would be 5 weeks since the last therapy.
In my last blog, I may have confessed to some fear but I would rather be able to proceed with my therapy. Josie and I were talking about it and my platelet count could be low possibly due to my hectic activities during these 2 weeks of Chinese New Year and did not get sufficient rest. However, if I were to look at it from the perspective of God’s planning, it could be that He knows that Josie is traveling for work on Tuesday and back only on Friday morning and had thus planned the postponement so that I’ll have Josie around to take care of me during my therapy and also that she does not have to worry about me when she is away on her trip.
Thus when I thought about it, the postponement may not be a bad thing after all. I will get my rest in this coming week and Josie need not worry and I’ll be at home to look after Nathan as well.
He is good even when it comes to planning my therapy.
In Him We Trust.
