Blood Infusion, CAT Scan, and Bone Scan time.

Travis had a bone infusion today,

and was able to discuss how he's progressing

with the Dr.

Sidenote: The good Dr. has started calling him 

'Professor' because of the beard.

I like it.

Anyhow,

Travis told him how awful the past few months

have been,

and gave him the long list of side effects and talked

at length about the quality of life with this drug.

Like, the fact that

it

sucks.

We both just can't imagine him doing many

more full 4 week rounds of this.

It's just so hard for him to crawl out of bed,

and really, he hasn't felt even remotely decent for weeks.

It's weighing on him, and all of us.

With that in mind- we are making some decisions

on whether to lower his dose to 35 mg from 50,

or to try 3 weeks on, 1 off,

or even 2 on, 1 off.

That is still undecided,

but hopefully we will make a choice soon.

He is going in tomorrow to get a blood infusion,

which we are both happy about.

I'm praying it will give him an extra boost before

the next round starts.

And maybe we will have a good weekend!

Tuesday he will get his CAT scan.

Yep, we are scared.

Thursday he will get a bone scan.

It's been a long time since he's had one,

so he's due.

And yep, scared for that too.

Those days are days I wouldn't wish on my worst enemies.

And my stomach drops when I think about them.

Say a little prayer for him.

Thanks again to everyone for everything.

All these dinners with desserts are really killing my waistline,

but they sure taste good!
