On Tuesday Linda and I went to MSTI Nampa to get back on the chemo treatments. I have been going in to MSTI every week day for radiation for the past 2 months now. I think Dr Fiorentino could see that I was tried of coming in, so he suggested that I take some time off. I quickly agreed (while jumping up and down inside) for some extra time off. So I will be doing no chemo for the month of March. We went ahead and scheduled a PET/CT Scan for April 2nd and then a follow up with Dr Fiorentino on April 6th. This way we can see where things are at and which direction to go.
I am looking forward to the time off of chemo and will be doing more vitamin C IV's in March, in fact I will have one tomorrow afternoon. This way I can get myself built back up and ready to go if needed. Looking back over the year, I had a brain tumor removed in January 09 then radiation to my head for several weeks. Then chemo since April of 09 through Dec of 09. Then it was more radiation for two months which brings us up to today. Now you know why I'm looking forward to a little time off.
Pray for Linda and I during this time to rejuvenate and get some much needed rest. We will probably head to the cabin sometime soon. It's the ultimate place to go and rest.
We Love You All,
God Bless you
Doug
