I’m laying in bed reading a few blogs on my phone and I realized that I haven’t updated my own blog for a while now. So since I’m still wide awake (in anticipation for Thanksgiving, I’m sure), I thought I’d write a little update…on my phone. Which could prove to be very difficult with an on-screen keyboard. So if I say ‘thong’ instead of thing or ‘chilis’ instead of holiday, I do apologize.
Things have been much better since the last time I posted about coming down with the plague. Brian’s second round of treatments was on the 11th and it went smooth (minus the fact that our initial appointment was on the 10th, and after doing labs and being settled in our room for an hour and a half, the pharmacist came up to tell us that somehow they had failed to order the drug…uhhhh..what??) So we were rescheduled to the following day.
Since then, Brian has felt pretty good. He gets tired a lot faster these days, and has some discomfort in his stomach for about the first 10 days, but besides that, he is hanging in there. He’s a trooper.
The day after his chemo, we went hunting together, as he said he was feeling good enough and we were already planning to go on opening day of rifle season. This past weekend he stood up in his friend, Phil’s, wedding. And our Sundays have been hectic, too. No wonder he’s exhausted!!! So thankful for the holiday vacation!
The doctors went ahead and scheduled Brians next PET scan for Nov. 30th!!! We will get the results on December 2. His itching has decreased significantly since we started chemo so we are so excited to see what is going on in his body!!
We will keep you posted.
Well, I suppose I should wrap this up. I’d say I did pretty good for typing this on my phone! Ill leave you with a few pictures I snapped on my phone of our recent activities.
Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
