Post Chemo

Andrew dropped Dad up for his chemo and checkup yesterday. I was teasing Dad that the seating in the chemo day unit looked like a salon but when I picked him up his hair and nails looked exactly the same! I think he valued the opportunity to ask any questions on his treatment and get some expert advice on his care. He got home about 4.30 and was able to do a few jobs around the house before dinner.

Today he is in very good form and we will wait and see what way this belt of chemo will affect him. It is hard to know what to expect as they have indicated that this session may produce more aggressive side effects. At least he has had a couple of good days if he gets tired over the next while.

Happy Birthday to Mum! I won't reveal what age she is today but she was pleased (I think that was the expressionon her face :-) ) to be surrounded by her grandchildren when she blew out her candles. She is as glad as Dad is that chemo is over for another few weeks.
