So today is another chemo day. We saw the doctor yesterday with Mary. He was only about 20 minutes late which for him is pretty much early! Mom has lost some more weight, down to 111.6 pounds, kidneys are still not working right and her white blood count is low but okay. So the doctor comes in for probably his shortest visit yet and asks how she's doing, etc etc etc. He says we need to do a pet scan before the next Round to see how the treatments are everything. He writes up the prescription and sends us on our merry way.
Later that afternoon though he calls back and says he wants to change the chemo to a new one that shouldnt be so hard on her kidneys. I'm all for this but it seems like we're rapidly burning through medicines that at least seem to be slowing the progression of the cancer.
So here we are waiting in the chemo room for the pharmacy to bring up the New medicine. Mom already has an iv line in her arm that's slowly pumping in saline. Were just waiting, she's trying to sleep, I'm trying to type but I have a sinister plan in my mind... i want a picture of the nurse in her bunny suit delivering the chemo....
