Today was a really long day...it was our "chemo day". We left home at about 10:00 and got home at almost 3:30. Not only did we have chemo. but we had labs, and a consult with our dr. as well. I shared my concern that chemo and radiation could possibly cause nausea (and all that goes with it). With Dave not being able to walk, caring for him would be a nightmare for us both. Our Dr. reassured me that he really did not think the chemo was going to have that side effect due to the doses being administered. He feels that we should continue this round (2 more Thursdays) and then reassess after scanning. Those scans will give us definite answers as to whether the chemo is working. We can then decide how to proceed.
Dave was exhausted when he got home and slept most of the afternoon and evening. He will most likely sleep most of the day tomorrow as well.
On a positive note the wheelchair ramp was a real help!! It took at least one of my worries away.
Blessings to all.....lets hope for more beautiful weather this weekend!!!
