end of day 2...

A big Happy Birthday to Ron's Dad today!!! He turns 89 years old! We love you Joe and hope you had a fantastic day! And thanks so much for coming to visit!!!

Ron at the middle of day 2... You can see his hand is already starting to swell. 


Chase came to visit and keep me company today:) He did a great job don't you think haha!
Love ya Chase!


Heres the day in a nut shell. . .

After Ron received his 3rd dose his riggers came as planned.  They have been doing a good job at keeping his riggers from being as bad as they were last time, the down side of that is that it is from giving him more pre-medicine before and to counter act the riggers it has made him very nauseated, and when he is not vomiting he has been sleeping. So Ron's day has been this dose #3, riggers medicine, sleep, wake up be sick, more medicine to counter act the sickness/vomiting and then more sleep.

It's 10:10 pm right now just got his labs back and it looks like another dose will be give shortly.  So I'm not really sure what kind of a night he will have it could be a long one if he gets sick/vomiting again, or he could just fall asleep with all the meds they give him and it could be an ok night for him.  We shall see.  I did get him to get up before they are going to dose him and he went for a walk, it was much shorter than he usually does, but I'll take whatever I can get from him!


  After his walk I had him sit in the chair for a few minutes.  He wasn't very happy about that, haha he really wanted to get back in bed.  He has always been very patient with me through this whole process but I can tell he's not at all himself! This really takes a tole on him! But as always he does what he knows is best for him, and tries to smile through the pain and feeling just really yuckie!!!

Just got told Dose #4 is here so should be given by 10:30 pm or shortly there after.  Sweet dreams to all who get to sleep! I will be able to sleep next week when we are home I'm sure a small price to pay when Ron is going through all that he is!  As always we feel the prayers and love from so many people!!! We are so very blessed, and have learned so much through this whole journey, and most of what we have learned is how blessed we really are! And that we do know that the Lord is so aware of each of us and will never leave us alone!  How blessed we are to know this is true!

 Ron really is my Hero!! Love you so much hun!!! 

FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT
