More chemo....

Hello all,

Just a quick post to let you know that Scott was cleared for chemo this week.  He also needs another transfusion, which will be at the end of the week.  His hemoglobin is a little low going in to the week of chemo.  It will get lower after chemo, so he's trying to stay on top of it.

Chemo has been going fine.  He was in Miami yesterday and is back and forth to Deerfield the rest of the week.  His Doctor has ordered more scans on April 13th to see if this chemo is able to slow down the growth of the cancer.  We'll have updates a few days afterwards.  For now, it's all about getting through chemo and the week of side effects afterwards.  He'll be taking a break from physical therapy these next two weeks, as well.

He had a pretty good weekend.  The pain wasn't as bad (it has unfortunately gotten bad again this week with all of the effort it takes to get to and from chemo), and he was able to have a couple visitors.  Hopefully he'll be up for visitors again in a couple weeks.

I'll do another post to let you guys know how the week went.

We send our love and hope everyone is doing well.
~Amy
