It's the last day of chemo and it's looks like Jeff will take 100% this time. We are so excited by this news. The last drop should be finished around 4:00 this afternoon. His blood counts are normal and other than a rash and headache he has tolerated this round well. In fact he's doing so well he will go home tonight or tomorrow morning. Yippee!
Dr Patel does anticipate his blood levels to drop dramatically this time which is normal after 3 rounds of this kind of chemo. Jeff will have to have blood work twice a week and we will need to be on high alert for infections. Please pray our family can stay healthy during the upcoming weeks. Luke already has a cold and I'm trying to figure out how to keep them separated.
I had a delightful birthday yesterday, even in the hospital. Thank you friends and family for making me feel so special! Katie and Sally came up last night and brought supper, wine and the movie, Bridesmaids. We went down to an isolated waiting room and watched the movie and laughed until we got the "snorts and coughs". I love my sisters so much!
Smiling today,
Jeff and Leta
