three months

And 300 visitors! Thanks everybody! Dave told me he wants to wish Aunt Tina a special belated birthday! Happy 29th, for the fifth time!!!

Dave's visit today went well. His white blood count was slightly decreased, but it was fine to receive his chemo. His eye is fine, his weight is maintaining, and he is still in clinical remission! He has to start an antibiotic (again) to prevent infection from the chemo, adriamycin. He is off next week, so we don't have to take him for bloodwork unless we see signs that he's not feeling good - loss of appetite or lethargy. He's a bundle of energy right now, but he'll probably slow down tonight. Hopefully?

His meds:

Adriamycin administered @ Penn

Eye meds: cosopt, xalatan and methazolamide

TMS antibiotic, 480 mg, 1/2 tab every 12 hours, starting Saturday 5.3

Zofran for nausea, 8 mg, 1/2 tab once a day for 4-5 days

One of the things I hadn't mentioned here is his increased snoring at night, scratching and licking during the day. I suspected, and his doctor confirmed, that it's due to seasonal allergies. We can give him benadryl as needed.
