wow...
the first day at the oncology office.
10:30 to 3:30

letters, forms, stuff to read, things to sign, blood to draw, shots to shoot.
ok, that last one was at the bar, on the way home!
ok, no it wasn't.
well, maybe!!!

we were there so long, that my phone battery died!
smart phones aren't so useful dead... paperweight mode!

the good news is that jackie was accepted into the clinical study.
the first infusion is on the 11th, next wednesday, our 26th anniversary.
(no better way to celebrate, then to start the fight in earnest)

it will be one infusion of chemo, every three weeks, for 12 weeks (four in all)
and if CT scan results are good then maintenance starts.
they told us...it's on the paperwork somewhere but our brains are full.

that's all we got for now!

  2. Thank you for this blog, Dale. It will be so good to keep up with Jackie's journey this way.

    P.S. Sue, are you related to Jay and Sally Langenbahn? I went to grade school with Sally.
