Hard day

Well, as far as Michael is concerned, this has really been a good week. He got through the 'red devil' really good and has one more day with his other two chemos...He is doing real good. No nausea, no temperature, and still has a good appetite and good outlook. Today has not been too good for me especially after lunch when it hit me what day it was. Today would have been Marc's and my 28th Anniversary and a year ago tomorrow mother passed away. Michael said he wanted to take me out to dinner....said he couldn't be my husband but would take me out. Hope all is well at home and you all had a great week. Love, Terri and Michael

10:00pm......Well, Michael and I went out to Jax Restaurant here in Bellaire for dinner....he had a hamburger and I had a fish plate....About half way through, he crashed. He was so tired he could hardly hold his head up and so we packed up what was left of our dinner and headed home. He wanted to watch the Astros with his Uncle Forrest, but went straight to bed and has been asleep since. He has such a good heart......wanted me to stop by the flower shop so he could get me some flowers, but told him he didn't need to do that. Hopefully, he will have more energy tomorrow...we will see. It is amazing how fast he can go down .....one minutes full of vigor and the next ready to collapse. Next few days will probably be rough but we will make it. It seems like when we finish the chemo is when the fatigue hits the hardest....I guess that is to be expected. We have to go in tomorrow for a fluid refill of magnesium, potassium, mesna and sodium and injections of nplate to keep his platelet count from bottoming out and neulasta to help the red blood cells in his bone marrow. He will probably have flu like symptoms after the neulasta shot. Thanks for all the prayers and this round will soon be history.
