Day 3 of IL2 3A

Good morning all:)  First time in all the doses that Ron has had that his rigger was not even really noticeable, too bad that he has to be sick in other ways, just can't win I guess.  So his night was ok like I said he didn't really rigger last night after his dose #4 but his blood pressure dropped really low, so they put him on some meds that will help to keep his blood pressure stable.  And he is still very nauseated which is hard he really hasn't eaten since Monday! I will make sure to make up for that when we get home for sure!!!

Labs this morning came back not too good:( His creatine (kidney function) is up above a 2 which is not good, so they are going to wait a while re-do labs around noon, and if it has gone down then they will dose him this afternoon.

All in all it's going about the way it is expected to.  I am so thankful for all the nurses who are here they are so FANTASTIC!!!! I can't express the love and kindness that they show Ron.  And Dr. Agrewall, his oncologist, and Joan who is the nurse over the IL2 they are amazing!  I still think back to when this first started and I knew where Ron needed to be, I am so very thankful that it was able to be worked out to get him here, he truly is under the best of care!!! And that again is just for me more evidence that we truly are in the Lords hands.  All this could not have worked out so perfectly without his help! Blessings are found everywhere, we just have to look and they are there!

Ron just went for his 2nd walk of the day! So all I can say about that is "Go Big Daddy" even when he's feeling so sick he just keeps on going!!!
