Good morning!
Good news... sounds like my mom may be discharged from the hospital this morning. I know my mom would rather go home, but she will be going to Carondelet Assisted Living for anywhere from 10-30 days. As that Dorothy girl from Kansas said, "There's no place like home". My personal thought is Carondelet is for the best. She's still extremely weak and with the continued therapy, hopefully her strength will quickly return. It's amazing what a little time can do when one is recovering.
I started my chemo on Monday. So far, so good. I'm a bit tired, but that's nothing a little sleep can't fix. I'll have chemo today, Thursday and Friday, and then be off for 3 weeks before the next go around. 4 series of this and then I'm done. Had a follow up yesterday with my surgeon. He's quite pleased with everything and discharged me from his care. Yeah! Two doctors down, one to go. Unfortunately, I'll have to see my oncologist off and on for at least a few years for blood work, pt scans, annual colonoscopies (oh joy!) and other tests. Had blood tests on Monday, and my blood levels were "excellent". Yeah!
The heat in KC has broken. It got down in the 50's last night, and today's high is forecasted to be 80. Sounds like we are going to have a beautiful week, but the heat will return over the weekend. So happy to be done with the 100+ heat index days.
All- take care and prayers for all!
