So So So

• Bloodwork and treatment at Siteman West County

A few months ago when we were scheduling my appointments leading up to my next set of scans, we figured out that the first week of January was supposed to be a treatment week. However, we already had a vacation planned for that week. Dr. T didn't stress about it (so I did my best to not stress about it), he said that I'd just have an extra week off and I'd return to treatment as soon as I was back at home. So all of my appointments were made accordingly.

Then around Thanksgiving, my treatment had to be delayed by a week because my neutrophil count was too low. So my appointments were all adjusted by a week and it seemed that I would not have to miss one after all.

Until... today's treatment had to be delayed (again) due to a really low neutrophil count. So we are back to where we started, I'll get an extra week off chemo. Seems like the break was just meant to be.

P.S. Other than the low neutrophil counts, the only thing that these two delayed treatment days have in common is that I brought out-of-town family with me to both appointments. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.........
