Day 2 and “International Sarcoma Awareness Week Begins” ~

Day 2 went pretty uneventful this time which is a good thing. He actually did get some rest while getting his treatment. He was unhooked around 4:30 this morning. Just minimal nausea is all. Still no headaches today (for both of us) which is good. They will hook him back up to Wall-e around 4:00 today. They are only going to do a 3-day cycle. This seems to be the best one for him. The doctors felt that the 4th day was just a little much on his counts this time and don’t even want to attempt the 5th day. So today will be his last day for chemo and we will get his Nuelasta shot tomorrow. Due to the last start each day, he will not be able to get his shot until tomorrow evening. So we will be here until tomorrow evening. That’s ok.

Today begins International Sarcoma Awareness Week. Here is a link to see if any events are in your area.
www.team-sarcoma.net. Unfortunately, we don’t have any events close to us and Michael is still stuck in the hospital (at least those are his words). You can go out and support these events through facebook also.

We will begin day 3 around 4:00 today. Let’s just hope it is as uneventful as last night / this morning. Hope everyone has a great day and for those of you here in North Texas, enjoy the nice weather. At least we won’t have the triple digits… Maybe I can talk Michael into taking a walk outside before he gets hooked up to Wall-e.

We continue to keep everyone in our thoughts and prayers. We pray everyone having an event today for Team Sarcoma has a wonderful time and a great turnout. We can’t wait to see pictures.
