5/24/08
Well, we made it through another long day of chemo yesterday. Started at 9:30 for all the preliminary work (blood drawn & tested, doctor's visit, etc.) then sat in a waiting room for another half hour because the treatment room was full and they were short on nurses. We finally started the treatment around 11:00, but because each treatment gets a little shorter, we were still able to get out at 4:00 p.m. We then went out to eat, went to Barnes & Noble and came home.

This morning Soni had a bar mitzva to go to for one of her previous students. Then afterwards, she wanted to go grocery shopping so I took her to the store. After coming home, she was pretty tired, so has sacked out for the day. The next chemo should be around 6/13, although we do not have an exact date or time yet. They will call us next week about it.

Today's chemo went well. No problems encountered. The next blood work is on Mon. 5/12/08 at 3:00 p.m. followed by the next chemo around 5/23/08. They will have to call us on the exact date as Doctor Harker, whom Soni is to see, has no openings on that date. The 2 spots on the shoulder and hip of the previous xray turned out not to be cancer... just arthritis.
