September 25th update
Everything went well with Bennett’s appt today. It only took about 2 hours at the hospital, a record time! The nurse accessed his port, she does this every time. Bennett puts emla cream on his skin above the port so he doesn’t feel the needle as bad. It still hurts some when she access it because of the pressure. He was given an iv push of the chemo vincristine and an iv drip of doxorubicin. Bennett did his homework while waiting.
We had enough time and he felt like stopping by the Galleria and ate lunch at the St Louis bread co.
It was good to see the rain today, it sprinkled mostly on our way to and from St Louis.
Bennett started taking steroids again today for one week. Two in the morning and two at night with food.
Bennett’s next appt is 2 weeks from today! We are expecting him to feel like he has for the past 3 weeks or so. We will be enjoying every minute especially because in 2 weeks, his treatment because more intense.
Very thankful for a faster and milder day! Glad you have a 2 week break. Love ya
