It was good for Trey and Stephen to spend the day with us in the hospital environment. Although there were only two items on our schedule, we ended up with an all-day waiting game and actually closed down the place. I gave them a tour of all the key locations in case they have to substitute as caregiver.
If the weather holds, Dave and Steve will fly over early Sunday morning and return Stephen and Trey to Atlanta. Trey goes back to Belgium on Tuesday. Stephen goes back to work. We'll keep the car and actually explore as Deb is able.
Speaking of weather-the car temp gage showed 108 when we got in.
Is it hot where you are?
Deb got her line inserted into her jugular vein for the chemo that starts in the morning. She also had the consult with Dr Nair. Our sons took her over for her line procedure while I stayed for a nurse med consult and pharmacy visit.
Tonight I have to sort new meds out for this week. There will be at least nine pills at home plus home chemo.The chemo given in the infusion center includes ten chemo drugs in the chemo cocktails.
Tomorrow starts the real treatment as Deb's immune system begins its downhill slide towards zero. We'll begin the hyper-clean food and environment to protect her. As usual, we ask for your prayers for her protection from infections and bugs.
We are so blessed to have positive lab results. We are so grateful for the Lord's blessing on us!
