Has it realy been two months?
The last two months have been quiet. Belly draining at home every day is so much better that the weekly trips to the doc or the hospital for major draining. Leisa is so much more comfortable on a daily basis.
Leisa finally was able to have chemotherapy today after over a month. Those pesky platelets just wouldn't multiply. They still aren't up but treatment proceeded anyway. We'll have another scan at the end of the month. Lots a back pain controlled by medication. Very unsteady on her feet. The past two months only one day spent in bed. Not bad.
I work when I can. Raegan and Sean are here often. Leisa's Mom is on the phone several times a day. Can't wait for winter to end. 70 degrees tomorrow should be a good tease.
New treatment options are not very appealing. Pretty serious side effects with no real indication they will succeed. Barfing while her hair falls out is not really what leisa wants. We're thinking now that no treatment might be the best treatment but its a tough call. Leisa's doc is great. We fell no need to second-guess his ideas at this point. We've done all the second-guessing we care to do.
We're closing in on two years of cancer madness. Its amazing what one can get used to (can't get used to the idea that Hillary may be pres.)
Stay healthy.
