Day 1 is in the Books ~

Well, we were hoping to get his treatments started early, but for some reason, he didn’t get his treatment started until 4:00. With all the hydration, pre-meds, and post-meds, his treatment usually lasts 12 hours. He didn’t get done until around 5:30 this morning, so we are both pretty tired. It makes it real hard to get any sleep when Wall-e begins to beep. He only had a little nausea this morning. His stomach is bothering him a bit but we hope it’s nothing. He’s already doesn’t want to eat much. Luckily he doesn’t really have a headache. I think he gave it to me so I am not a very cheerful visitor for him, or maybe he likes it that way since I am not talking much… You know how men can be… (Love ya sweetie!!)

They did get him started at 4:00 to begin his “Day 2”. He is getting his “red cheeks” from the steroids in one of the pre-meds, so they are bringing him his benadryl. Hopefully he will get a little sleep.

We do thank everyone for the kind words of encouragement to Michael. He does enjoy each and over one of them. We continue to keep each of you in our thoughts and prayers.
