Chemo

Hello Everyone,
I'm very sorry I haven't gotten something up here a bit earlier. I am extremely busy at work and I'm preparing to be gone from Wed to Sunday in Texas for work.

Steve has made it through his first chemo treatment. It's a lengthy process. Before each treatment he has to go up and have blood drawn and then about an 1 to 1.5 hours later he meets with the Dr. He will then find out if they can go ahead with the treatment. They will be watching his cell count very close and if things aren't right they will put off treatment for a couple days to a week. The drugs take some time to administer. There are 4 drugs altogther and 3 of them take a matter of minutes to push into the port. The final one is a large bag and takes two hours to drip.

Anyway, he was doing okay and does have some medication for anti-nauseau so hopefully that won't be too much of a factor. We shall see.
We will definitely keep you posted here.

Thanks,
~Vicki
