Oh, clinic day! Oh, clinic day! How lovely to exit early! Record short clinic day. In and out in 2 1/2 hours, not counting drive. Nice to come home on a Thursday. Asa was still a bit nauseous today, though he perked up and was better later in day. Still his silly self. His counts are very, very low for this point. Hoping they make the turn quickly. This chemo has really hit him hard. His weight had dropped, but docs were not concerned, Asa did eat some dinner tonight. We keep trying to feed him.
Please clearly pray that Asa stay well, that we all stay well the next few weeks. We probably have at least that long before counts begin to rise again. Cancer protein markers are very good. All docs pleased. Pray that Asa opt to eat as well. He was down below 10 kg again today. Pray for our endurance. We have 4 tests (1 major sedation, 2 minor) and 1 clinic before the end of the month. Home stretch but stressful. Pray for little boy, Brendon, that we met at clinic. So many tough things on that unit.
Thanks today for being in and out so fast. It was cancer camp week so clinic was slow. Grateful for family time and getting a bit of paperwork done. Thankful Asa has been happy go lucky. Happy to hear a few words. Asa says flower now and definitely Mom and Dad. Thankful to see a few steps, too. We celebrate these cancer delayed milestones!
