Chemo's Over!!!

Friday, November 21, 2008
Tom finished his chemo a little over a week ago, but has been so wiped out I didn't want to update, for fear that he would need another trip to the hospital. We have avoided the hospital and Tom seems to be on the rebound. He has had to go to Dr. Tucker's office every day this week to get neupogen injections to increase his white blood count. We'll go back on Monday to get his blood counts and tumor markers checked and then go across the hall to get a CT scan. All of which will hopefully help us plan for surgery in a couple weeks.
Tom is feeling a lot better, and even ran a couple errands with me (he stayed in the car), I think it was the most he has been out of the house in a LONG time. He is still anemic and gets really tired, even just walking across the house (not that we have a large house at all). He's really getting better every day, and that is very encouraging to see.
Will keep you posted.
