Treatment 3

Treatment III was postponed because Tim got another infection. And because the infection orginated in his PICC line, they had to remove it. Once it cleared up though, he was able to get another line and proceed with his chemo. Even though it seemed stressful at the time, it really only delayed his treatment a few days and worked out fine. Tim was tired mostly but a lot more nauseous. At one point we thought he had the flu but I don't think he did. I think it was the chemo. I think it going to get progressively worse. But we'll see how the next round goes.

Treatment 2

It's been a couple weeks since I posted any updates and for that I am sorry. It's been about a week since Tim's last chemotherapy treatment and for the most part it went about the same as first. The first day he is nauseous but after that he is just plain exhausted. As it is he sleeps a lot but I've noticed that on weeks he has treatments, he sleeps even more. With each passing day though, he starts to feel a little better. Just when he's feeling his best, it's time for the next round.

On Sunday, Tim's parents came up for a visit. It was nice to see them. Afterwards, my parents came over for a little superbowl party. I did a lot screaming which scared Rocky. He didn't know what to do and kept checking on me to make sure I was okay. He's a sweet puppa! Chubs, on the other hand, couldn't care less. She was tired and only interested in lounging around in akward positions. She's just not interested in football. Actually only two things get her plumpy butt movin', Tim and FOOD!

On Monday, Tim had the tubing for his nephrostomy drain replaced. This is the second time he's had this done. The procedure was quick and relatively painless. Afterwards, we stopped at Costco and a cool store Lacie introduced me to called lululemon. Lulu and Costco are a couple of my favorite places and Tim knows it so he said we could stop before we headed home. The day was pretty uneventful but it's the most Tim has been able to do in a while. It felt so nice to get out of the house and spend some time together. For a while I know I felt like a semi-normal, young married couple. With Tim's new pain medicine, I hope for more sweet mundane moments in our future.
