I've been a bad blog host the past few days! My apologies :) Life has been a bit crazy with the holidays coming up and work etc. On top of that, Tom has really not been feeling well. He's not bouncing back at his usually speedy rate and feeling fatigued and still needing medication. Usually as we turn the corner into Week 3 he is off almost all of the anti-nausea medicine and we start a week of as-needed medicine only. However, he is still needing the medicine and resting quite a bit. Rest is good because his body is working hard, but usually he's not needing to rest as much at this point. But this isn't anything we didn't expect since our doctors warned us that the compound effects of the four treatments would be especially tough this time.
Needless to say, he's getting a little restless and wants to speed up to next week so we can get results! This week will be relatively calm, he will have blood work on Thursday (fingers crossed we don't need a transfusion!) and we will meet with one of our doctors too. We really are just marching towards the 21st & 22nd. Best case scenario this week would be that his blood looks good so we can maybe schedule the surgery next week. All good energy and prayers sent our way would be appreciated so he starts to bounce back this week! More to come...
