Last Round of Chem - July 6-11

Wednesday, July 7, 2010

The last round of chemo has begun! Ron had 3 appointments yesterday afternoon, "checked in" to his hospital room in early evening, and the first infusion of chemo started at 9:00 P.M. Niccole arrived in the evening and spent the night with me.

The doctor's consultation and first round of chemo have gone very well, and we are very optimisitic that Ron's treatments will ensure permanent remission. He will have another bone marrow biopsy August 2.

He is now receiving the 2nd infusion from 9-12:00 this morning. Then he has a day off. By having the alternate days of chemo, Ron can rest in my room in the afternoons. It is hard to sleep well in the hospital room!

Thanks for your continued support and good wishes sent our way.
