Started

They started the chemo on Friday night. The first 2 treatments were big ones. The next 3 will be smaller, but the last one overlaps with two radiation. I don't want to mention it but he did see McDonald french fries floating around Friday night. He feels better today so hopefully he may blog for himself. He says he will be working on line today..we'll see. The fun part for me is that I get to wear rubber gloves all the time. At least we are not to a mask yet. The gloves are funky...you can't change the TV channel with them on...now, that is bad! For your future information, the purple ones are a lot more comfy then the flesh ones...those suckers stick to the skin. Saturday after making a fast inventory of the area I found a chair! First walk thru the rooms were all full and they have only three comfortable chairs on the ward. HA! Second search I found someone had been let out, and they had the good chair in the room! Yes I grabbed it and pushed it to Chris' room. Very big and comfy, it even folds out to a bed! Now that makes the 5 hour visits more comfy. Chris isn't eating of course, but if you tasted the food there you would understand....it really is bad. So while you are writing Congress to increase the funds for medical research, please mention food too :)
