I kind of feel like Bill Murray in Groundhogs Day right now. We are back in the hospital for our last round of chemo before Steven's surgery and we are in the same room we were last time doing the same chemo and watching the same cartoon. This time Steven is doing better and today the sun is shining. I hope this round goes better for him. Tomorrow while we are here, he will have an MRI (mostly to help plan the surgery), a CT scan to check his lungs (they don't usually see tumor growth during chemo, but just in case), and a bone scan (to make sure the cancer hasn't spread to other places). We will also visit with the surgeon and get a better understanding of what to expect. If you have any questions--ask them now!
Once again, Steven is getting methotrexate. I'm including some pictures from last time. He is still just getting hydrated right now, hopefully he can start the chemo in the next couple of hours.
good luck Steven! we're thinking about you.

Go Steven! Your shirt is hilarious.
ReplyDeleteGood luck! I hope it goes better for you this time and that you're home soon.
ReplyDeleteGood luck! We will be thinking of you and praying for you, especially as the surgery gets closer! Hang in there buddy:)
ReplyDeleteMany years down the road you will look back at the pictures and think of how you were so strong and brave! We pray for you nightly.
