Mark usually goes in for a chemo drug infusion every other week. Last Monday (April 25th) was his scheduled infusion date, BUT after having his blood drawn and meeting with his Dr. they decided to reschedule. His white blood cell count was down, he was feeling pretty weak, and over all just didn't feel great. They decided to reschedule his appointment for today.
He finished up earlier than normal (usually his infusion is done between 4 and 5; today it was done at 2:00) because he didn't have to meet with the Dr. or get his blood drawn. He was 'plugged in' to his fanny pack chemo drug pump and will return on Wednesday to 'un-plug'. Then things should continue in the every other week fashion, so his next chemo infusion will be May 16th.
Thank you to all who call and write to stay in touch. We all really appreciate your love and prayers!
Thanks for the update. It is nice to know what is going on. Hang in there Uncle Mark. Love you!
