Day 3

Well we made it to the half way mark!!! I am grateful for day 3! This means friday is even sooner! Not a whole lot of things to report. He has had 6 doses now and they are getting worse each time it's hard to watch but at the same time its a good thing because that means the IL2 is doing what its suppose to do. They didn't expect him to react this quickly to it so that too is a good sign. Lets see "riggers" nausea, flushing, red face, thrush in his mouth, constipation, his picc line (one of them got clogged so only on side was working has since been fixed) this is just a few of the fun side effects. But its the only thing that gets rid of this kind of cancer soooooo when they come in and ask are you ready for another dose Ron says even with a smile "lets do this"!!! All in all things are actually going better than expected for the treatment but I'm not going to lie, we will both be glad to be home hopefully by Friday afternoon.
