A teenager who had cancer and recovered, donated his Play Station 2 to the next boy who might get some entertainment out of it.....well you guessed it..... Big D is the lucky boy. Dillon is lounging on my bed in a pile of pillows and playing an NBA game. It has been an uneventful day; which, by the way, is just how we like it; nice and boring, not a thing going on, no excitement whatsoever. We did have a visitor today. She called yesterday asking about any food cravings. Dillon declared that he would like a California roll and some seaweed salad. THANK YOU Julia for fulfilling that desire :))))

The second of 2 new chemotherapy regimens starts tomorrow. It is called I.C.E. which stands for ifosfamide, carboplatin, and etoposid. The side effects list on this cocktail is long and potentially severe. He will have this cocktail for the next 3 days; each one takes a couple of hours and they have to be spaced out in particular time frames to each other....so D will be hooked up with chemo drip for most of the next 3 days. Wish us luck and send us your 'feeling healthy' power for the rest of this week :))
Smooth sailing is exactly what I'm ordering. As the old saying goes, From my lips to God's ears.
ReplyDeletePS2 is Dave's choice of game modes too...must be something in the baldness that requires a guy to play that kind!! love, hugs, and smooth sailing...Aunt Marilyn
