This was a chemotherapy week for us, so we’ve been laying
low. Johnny’s been watching his Indians
(very disappointed during the last two series) and resting. After his initial infusion at the Zangmeister
Center he’s attached to an infusion pump or as we call it the “take home party
pack.” The pump is programmed to infuse
the chemo drug 5-FU slowly over the next 48 hours. For all he’s gone through and continues to go
through we are nothing but grateful, he’s doing really well.
As for me, once again my liver enzymes were elevated. No change from the last time, but still
elevated. No known cause, so I’ll have
more testing at the end of May. My
Oncologist does not believe that it is cancer related at this time, but she’s
also the one doctor who told me I wouldn’t go bald from the chemo drugs…so I’m
cautiously optimistic. I’m also going to
be doing a round of hyperbaric oxygen to support my immune system.
We’re enjoying this beautiful weather and getting the garden
ready. Happy Easter to all.
