***Didn't get this out on Friday***
Well it's Friday and it ends the first week of Chemo!
Monday was the full blown treatment; both the regular chemo and the trial study drug. Mom went down with him to the Cancer Center. He ended up being there all day and was pretty worn out by the time he got home.
Tuesday wasn't as bad, he said he felt tired but pretty good. He of course showed up for work! In the almost 12 years I have worked for my Dad he has NEVER called in sick!
Wednesday he called me on the way to work and said "I just woke up." I know it's hard for him to not be at HIS business but Bill and I will do whatever it takes to make sure that his business runs smoothly. He showed up about 8:00 but had to leave at to get his bloodwork done at about noon.
Thursday: Mom had to go out of town to do the U of A Wildcat trip. Dad called me again on the way to work and said that he was going to be late. He said that he had gotten sick and was trying to get in as soon as possible. I was a little upset that he didn't get his anti-naseau meds.
We did find out that there is a HUGE price difference between Pharmacies. They originally called Walgreens and were quoted a price of $389.00 for a months supply. I called around and finally located it at Fry's for $41!! Talk about a rip off!
He seems to be doing well with the medications so hopefully he'll continue to have an easy time with it all. We'll see how the weekend goes!
