Wednesday & Thursday

Oh, I'm bad. I forgot to post on Wednesday! I think it was because poor Willy came home so late, then we had a late dinner, then he went right to bed and fell asleep exhausted.

But in short, he WENT to App State and he taught his classes! He felt pretty good, he said!

He was, however, too tired last night to tell me about the classes, so I knew he was REALLY tired, because he usually tells some stories.

I had a pot roast and some potatoes and broccoli/carrot mixture ready for dinner (you can imagine the proportions he wanted of which thing: (hint) about 1/4 teaspoon of broccoli) and we watched a Sherlock Holmes episode.

Today, Thursday, will be quite different from yesterday, though.

At 8 a.m., he had to eat a big breakfast and immediately drink a huge bottle of barium. Oh, goodness. French Vanilla flavored.

At 11, this morning, we go over to ChemoWorld and he gets methotrexate and vinblastine. Then at 2:30, he has to drink ANOTHER whole giant bottle of barium and get a big bunch of CT scans of his body and abdomen. This is the baseline CT scan they wanted him to have before chemo, to see if, after 4 cycles, he is still clear (he'll get a comparison scan in late April at Wake Forest.)

Quite the day. I'll post again tonight or tomorrow morning. Hope your winter day isn't too wintery!

Love to you, very much love...
