Monday's done :-)
Hi all - home already!!! No snow today to slow us down, so we were early and got started right away!!
Radiation was ready for us too. Dr. Lee was happy with Scott's weight gain of 4 lbs.??? We think all the fluids they had just given him at chemo helped that number along, she wanted to check his pockets for lead weights, it sure made her smile.
Everything else was good also, blood counts etc., Scott even said when we got home...knock on wood, I feel good :-)
So he is having a snack right now and will probably both take a little nap.
Scott will start having extra fluids each day now, and our appointments will all start @ 8:30. The extra fluids helps relieve the nausea side effect from both the chemo and radiation treatments.
A Ok Monday...three more to go!!

Glad to hear everything turned out great today. We enjoyed the visit and of course when we get together ate toooo much again. I won't talk about the drinking, looks like the younger crew is taking over.
Looks like the eating part paid off for Scott also, if thats what it takes we can do it every week.
Loved seeing everyone and look forward to doing it again in June.

It must have been Claire's prize winning cheesy potatoes! I think if we all stepped on the scale this morning we each would have each seen a similiar weight gain from them!-haha- Such great news Scott! Keep up the good work. We're all right there with you. Love, Linda
Scott,
Glad to hear about your monday appointment went so well. Always good to get the week on a winning start. Your home nurse must have you on a good routine also. Keep it up, we are thinking of you and hoping for more good news. Love you.

Good Morning :-)
Just getting caught up on your updates. Glad to here you are "gaining weight" Scott. Boy, that isn't something most of us has wanted to hear in the past. Keep up the good work (both of you). Before you know it you will be able to sit outside and enjoy Mother Nature, that always brightens the day.
Love ya,
Doc and Mary
