New to site

Hi, my name is Robin and my mom has been diagnosed with MDS. She started her first round today with Vidaza. I thought I had done my research lol, but there is so much to learn. this site is a wonderful place to find info. My mom is 68 years old.
her rbc today 10.2
wbc today 1.6
platlets 56,000

As a newbie is there anything in particular I should watch for?? she has moved in with me, so I can help out.. Truth be told I want to pull the covers over my head and cry. I know I have to be strong for her. It is comforting to know there are others out there managing this dreadful disease and leading meaningful lifes.
