Treatment

Date: Sept 30, 2004
    I am glad he looks good. How is he feeling? And is he still on chemo, or off it and then another bout of it, or what happens now.
      So proud your are getting an offer letter!

      I was looking for a offer letter tonight - now found that it is coming Friday AM by FEDEX.
     
      I don't even know what day of the week this is------.
      I am racing two databooks out - just released one other .
      There is a little work on a third. This will keep ther company I am leaving set for a time.
     
      He counts are, according to the doctor, tracking where they should be - he gets blood or platelet's almost every day now
      They had a blood drive for him (Team in Training - Leukemia Society) recently. HE burns thru about 2 units and a bag of plateletes every two days.
      He reacted to the bandage on the PICC line - blisters - they said "Oh let them be -----"
      I said "Change the dressing and cover the blisters so they do not rub"
      They have him on Sudafed on request - I said "Every 4-6 hours"
      He has something wrong with a leg - either a bad bruise or---
      So they did a biopsy [It was clear.]
      Busy day!!!!!
     
      They will do bone marrow biopsy Monday - Know Wed-Thurs how we are fairing
      He's staying positive
      I am trying to
      He is adamant that I go to work at a reasonable start date and not delay because of him
      So I have my orders!!!!
     
      If the bone marrow is NOT clear - they do more chemo [It was clear.]
     
      He "Looks good" for where he is - but the swollen arm and leg bother me.
      Fungal infections are lethal - been there - done that .
