We're getting used to being so flexible and able to shift gears at a moment's notice -- if only we were younger, we would have the beginnings of a skill set toward a career in Cirque du Soleil......
We arrived at Dr. Menco's for the Rituxan today and since Ed has felt so good and the fevers are under control, they offered him the option of combining the Rituxan and the chemo into one longer infusion appointment today and then having the Nuelasta injection tomorrow and starting the Prednisone tomorrow as well. Ed opted for the combo appointment so he won't have to sit again tomorrow for several houirs. So he is there now until about 3:30 to have everything and we can go straight from there to the surgeon's office and get the drains taken out from the surgery. It's nice to combine several appointments to cut down on the driving back and forth.
So I'll let you know later this evening how it's all going. Keep good thoughts and prayers for a smooth week and for the Nuelasta to be super effective this time and keep him from getting an infection!
Sorry I didn't hear the doorbell last night, Lyndsay and Peter. Next time just knock louder if you know we're home........us older people don't hear as well as we used to!
More later.........
Good going Ed, you looked good on Saturday and ready to rock and roll again. Prayers for a good week and steady progress. Love you man, TC
ReplyDeleteGood call doing the combo today. Hope you have an un-eventful week, and hopefully you can stop by the office so we can see you. Glad you had a good weekend. Keep fighting!!!!
