More news and one Chemo session down....

Hello All,

Nick and I are home from the hospital and he is now in bed resting as he is very tired.

We were told today that Nick's scan had showed tumors in his neck glands too :(

The nurses on the ward are lovely and made us very comfortable when we arrived. It was going to take a short while for Nick's Chemotherapy to be made so we were given a bleeper so we could leave the ward and they would bleep us when it had arrived.

But first he needed to have a cannula put in so the nurse very kindly obliged and then she was told she had used the wrong one that it was a different cannula for Chemotherapy so bless him he had to have one put in his other hand :-/

Today we were not there for very long approx three and a half hours in total but they have said that if he needs the antibodies during the next session it will be an all day job....that was my que to remember to pack the DS :)

One of the chemotherapy medicines were bright red and they did say his pee might change colour and I can report it definitely has.... :) He has also come home with some super dooper pain relief but there is more he can have should these not work which is comforting to know.

I am very very proud of my wonderful husband and will be with him every step of the way.

Nurse Lynn must now remember to give him his home medication for the next 7 days then we will be on the countdown ready for his next chemotherapy session which will be the 22nd December.
