First Day Of Chemo.
Just a quick post before I go to bed. I just got off the phone with Nolie, and as scheduled, Dad had his first round of chemotherapy today. The appointment was scheduled for 2:30 p.m. (in Texas we would say it was scheduled at 2:30 p.m., but in New Orleans they say for. They also make groceries here instead of buy them.) Anyway, Mom says that Dad feels better today than he has in a long time. He has no pain and had a great appetite for lunch. The first chemo. drug took 1.5 hours to administer, and the second, which is going in now, takes 3 to 3.5 hours. They're keeping Dad in the hospital tonight, and if all goes well they shoud be back at the RIBM tomorrow afternoon. They also did the biopsy on the mass outside the bladder, but results are not available yet. That's pretty much all for today. Of course, I'll post more as information becomes available. Now I'm going to finish my Southern Comfort Cajun Eggnog that I got at the daiquiri drive-thru, and go to bed. You can only get Southern Comfort Cajun Eggnog at this time of year.
